@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.

I love Italians! They have amazing food knowledge...just look at all the Italian restaurants and cooks on the Food Network. My mother shopped locally and I was sent to buy produce and fish locally so I learned a lot that way and also how to cook a lot of Irish/English food.
I worked at a farm stand during the summers on Long Island and tossed 50 lb bags of potatoes around like a long shoreman .
Learned a lot about organic veggies.
I use lime juice on an avacado half also...sometimes not. I can tell if it going to survive a day in the fridge. There’s never any leftover guac when my daughter makes it...we usually wipe the bowl clean.
Yum...FL Mary (you can get up now Leonard)
