why can't even one company make a decent guacamole that you can buy at the store? every one i've tried tastes like slime.

Tried any fresh stuff made by the locals? Maybe I'm just spoiled living in CA, but the stuff here is great.

because avocado meat begins to go rancid the moment it is exposed to air.

i don't mean to be a cooking snob, but why not make your own guacamole? it's quite easy.

Locals? Like the Maine bubs?

I'll trade you some syrup for some good guacamole.

I know, but I just believe in letting others do the work for me.

I've said it before, and apparently I must say it again:

"Adding butter to Frank's is for pussies."

I agree, but for a great wing sauce that those mere mortals can enjoy, you have to add the butter.

With all due respect to all of you, I've probably cooked more chicken wings than any of you have seen in your entire lives.

If you want it to stick, coat them in the Frank's, then toss them in the oven for a few minutes. :wink:

I know, but I just believe in letting others do the work for me.

so hire someone to go to the store, purchase ingredients, and make them into fresh guacamole

Well, I'd rather my guacamole didn't cost $40.

Guac's easy Kel. Mash up the avocados, mince some onions, a little cumin, some chili powder, a dash of Tabasco, a little salt, tomatoes (if you get down like that), and some lemon/lime juice depending on your preference(this also helps it from turning brown).

Thanks. Sounds yummy. I know it's easy, I just wanted it to be easier aka open container, dip.
