Um... this is blasphemy of the highest order.

Guacamole is a sacred institution. What am I going to teach my kids when they come home and tell me that Billy's moms use peas in their guacamole?

The Bible clearly states that guacamole is between an avocado and a lime.

If we just redefine guacamole and allow peas, what's next? What if I want to make my guacamole with pureed carrots? How about if I like baby carrots? What if now I want to add celery and rosemary and pumpkin seeds? Huh?

Blasphemy. Let all the water dry up in California! Following The Bible is more important than taking a shower!

Never heard of mayo, but I used to freak out at my supermarket in PA, where they sold a guac brand that had cream cheese.

Any attempt to redefine guacamole is blasphemy.

But yeah, those are both equally gross.

I went to a Mexican place in NY that put mango, pineapple, or pomegranate as an added extra to their table-made guac. It was SO GOOD!! Not peas tho. That sounds terrible.

I mean, are they proposing using a small portion of peas as filler as well as a portion of avocados? Then maybe. MAYBE! But substituting the avocados for peas altogether is a different story. That's not "peas in guacamole", that's eating mashed up peas. No.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

I think it's peas as a filler, not as the main ingredient.

I'm not into mango. Pineapple I like on a pizza. Pomegranate arils themselves I've never had, but I like POM. Sounds like that would be really good in a salsa, anyhow. Out here, I company out of L.A. produces peach salsa which is quite good, even though I hate peaches.

Well, it's a maybe then. It might be that you can't even taste the difference.

But I like my guac chunky as hell. Like cubes of avocados in that shit. And as an American, I refuse to curb my decadence because of silly things like "droughts" or "the economy".
