Bacon is meat candy.

I would happily sit and munch my way through avacados whole-LURVE them!

Avocados have great aerodynamic properties, but that's about all I can use them for...

Another avocado lover. Plain with just a bit of salt. Yummy goodness. MUST be Haas avocados however. Those things in Florida that they try to pawn off as avocados are atrocious.

Fresh (Haas) avocados good. Cooked/heated avocados bad.

Raw bacon bad. Cooked bacon good!

I hate what they do to poor avacados when they make them into guacamole- they lemon them to death. I have a friend who puts hardboiled eggs in it-

gak!

A little citrus is necessary unless the idea of brown guacamole is appealing. I prefer lime to lemon and not too much. Although, I've heard somewhere that if you place the avocado pit in with the guac, it will also prevent it from turning brown.

hardboiled egg? I think I just threw up in my mouth a little.

And yet, I bet it would have been absolutely perfect for your bacon sandwich. The thought is making my mouth water, although I'm not quite at the quivering stage.

I had 3 strips of bacon at lunch today. Mmmmmmmmm

It helps, but does not "cure" the problem. Somewhere between lemon joice and nothing at all.

A friend turned me on to adding REAL (not imitation) crab meat to the guac. Nice alternative!

All it does is delay the browning of any guac directly underneath the pit because it's not as exposed to air. You can achieve a much better effect with plastic wrap.
