Things You Don't Know About Avocados

I never really knew much about Haas Avocados or eating them. A few family members asked me to try a slice of an avocado.  At first, I didn’t think it had a lot of flavor to it. It wasn’t a bad taste but it was different. I applaud myself for trying something new as I have many food allergies.
