I like to think I really know how to pick out an avacado but have gotten stuck too many times. I do know what stores seems to have the best ones but still....Publix is great about returning bad avacados if you get there the next day but I usually try to pick around the bad spots. I generally don’t like to refrigerate a half of one but occasionally a good one will survive until the next day.
It’s still a crap shoot.

@imallears It is definitely a "crap shoot". Oddly, my husband will not eat avocados but on the rare occasion that I get him into the supermarket he picks out the best ones! He is of Italian heritage and I swear that Italians have more of an appreciation and feel for produce. If I have a good one I will put lime juice on it and wrap it in saran wrap and it is good the next day as long as I just slice off the very top.
Speaking of avocados, I read not long ago that the best way to keep guacamole is to cover it with water! Then just pour the water off, and the little that remains on the surface can either be blotted off or stirred in. I haven't tried it yet, the only time there is guac in the house is when my kids are visiting. It would be a waste to make for just me.
