#1 – I think you missed the part where she lives in Scandinavia. There are not too many avocados growing in Scandinavia, and authentic Mexican food isn’t served any more often than authentic Scandinavian food is served where I am in Armpit, Texas. Believe me, as a former Navy brat, when I say that one is wisest to stick to the foods that are the specialty of each region, and you’ll always eat well. If, however, you insist on getting authentic Southern food in NYC or good seafood (that isn’t shrimp) in Kansas, you’re not going to enjoy what you get because what you’re getting isn’t local, and it won’t be made as well.

#2 – Avocados are okay, but overbilled, IMO. Personally, I’d much rather have butter than avo toast, for example, but that’s my preference, and I don’t care to be told I’m wrong since I wouldn’t presume to tell someone else that they’re too dumb to know what they like. Glad you like your ‘cados – even in Texas, I find them expensive and a PITA because you have such a short amount of time to take advantage of them when they’re perfectly ripe, and even one day of having your dinner plans change, and you’ve got nasty mush. Makes a big difference when you can go out and pick them fresh, though. Most of the US cannot, however.

#3 – Agreed, though, buttermilk in guacamole makes me shudder. This sounds like a great dressing, though (minus jalapenos – I do not like them, Sam I Am) and I’ll definitely give it a shot. Thanks, Kevin!

???????? WHAT? How can ANYONE think
ANYTHING with avocado in it is boring??? I great up having an avovcado tree on my backyard. I have trillions of ideas on how to use an avocado……AND love all of them! INCLUDING this one! Sorry you don’t like the recipe.

PLUS, making guacamole with buttermilk? NEVER heard about using buttermilk in Guacamole…..
