Cooking vs Restaurants

[Fireball]

I've warmed to guacamole over time.  It's particularly good inside Mexican dishes.  But cooked beets are teh Satan.

Here’s a rough version of a conversation I’ve had more than once: 

‘I don’t care for guacamole.’

‘What? Are you insane?!’

‘Possibly, but that’s not the reason.’

‘Why would you not like guacamole?’

‘Because I don’t like the taste of avocado.’

‘But I make killer guac!’

‘Do you make it with avocado?’

‘Of course.’

‘Conversation over.’

Yeah, guacamole is big here and I want nothing to do with it.  Yes, I have tried it, more than once.  No, I don't like it.  I do like Tex-Mex food and it's available on every street corner here but I always have to specify 'no guac'.  I also don't care for pico de gallo - not a huge fan of chunks of raw tomato and one tiny shred of a leaf of cilantro is more than enough for me.

I love(d) pico de gallo. Turns out that it doesn't love me. My reflux has diminished 90% just from cutting out tomatoes and onions...and probably the lime/lemon juice, which I KNOW I am allergic to, but ate anyway if it was in the salsa...but it was only a little citrus...   I do like guacamole , though.
