Do you even realize what's involved? (note: parody, joke, etc.)

First there's the toast. You know how older toasters would often have a darkness scale on the duration lever. Well, mine doesn't. It has LEDs that blink off one by one as it gets closer to zero. How the f* is that supposed to help me? I've been trying to limit myself to "White Bread Done Right" (can't remember brand name) so I just leave it on one setting. But I also use the toaster for . . . mmm, other things too. It has a button that let's me lift the toast to check it (it then retracts back into the toaster) but like, I'm going to stand there and check. GTFO

Then there's the avocado. Try to find a ripe one and moosh it up myself? Are you stoned? (I usually am). I only buy pre-mooshed. But the problem there is that shit goes bad on the ride home. And let me tell you, I've already got shit in the fridge that probably count as a bio or chemical weapons.

Sorry... but I like my toast slices with eggs, bacon, and American cheese sitting in between them.

I am Trying to get to a more heart healthy diet but with foods I like, bacon & cheese taste good but aren’t good for me. I could do egg whites though & play with seasoning options

Avocado toast is delicious.

I learned a trick this week on the internet. I got three avocados on Wednesday that I needed to use two of them on Friday.

One was clearly going to be ready and ripe but the other two were not and needed to ripen faster.

I put one of the others into a cardboard box (a paper bag was suggested but I only had a small cardboard box) with a couple bananas as the internet suggested. The one in the box with the bananas was perfect to eat on Friday. The other unripened one that wasn't in the box was definitely not ready on Friday.

Apparently the bananas release some gas which helps the avocados ripen faster.

I’m old school, I like butter and jam on my toast for breakfast and my avocado in guacamole on taco for lunch.

I'm Gen Y and not a millennial so I have no use for your avocado toast. I only consume Count Chocula, Alpha Bits, Froot Loops, Honey Smacks and Cookie Crisp for breakfast.

(Except I don't, because a bowl of any one of those probably has enough sugar to kill me, but you get the point.)

I say keep it simple. Bread of your choice toasted, then butter, avocados, and a couple splashes of your favorite hot sauce. Done.

We had this for dinner tonight with the onions sautéed and English muffin bread.

Avocado toast always sounded like guacamole on toast. Not my thing.
I like my toast slathered with peanut butter and jelly. (I generally use Smuckers sugar free jelly for my health) Add a container of Dannon Light and Fit Greek yogurt...maybe a banana and/or an orange...good to go.

So..... a "Guac-O" ?!? :p


Guacamole is great in chimichanga's and burrito's so why not? ;)

My son has taken over making fresh Guacamole and he does a great job! All three of us standing in the kitchen munching in the middle of the night happened…his food prep skills are getting impressive ❤️
