Carrots or avocado?

I like avocado better. Especially in guac with fresh cilantro. You can't do that with carrots. Carrots suck.
 
Baby carrots: place in microwave safe dish. dob on a little butter (a couple of tablespoons should do it) pour in 1/2 cup of water. Sprinkle liberally with Basil. Cover & cook until tender.

Yes to both.

During the summer I get my carrots from my garden. I try to pull them before they get longer than 7" so that they're still young. The flavor is intensely rich as compared the the grocery store crap that is (#1) hybridized, and (#2) so pumped with nitrogen fertilizer as to be almost tasteless.

I grew almost all 'heritage' vegetables this year. What a difference in flavor!!!!!

i like carrot cake. does that count?


and i love guacamole, but i hate feeling heartburn all the way down followed by terrible gas and bloody shit and occasionally a bloaty feeling that only ends with the blood and/or me forcing myself to puke.

not that i'm whining, but i'm in a shitty mood so i want to share the vileness of my freakishly weird allergies.

though, hey, at least my throat doesn't swell up like this chick i talked to who is actually allergic to avocados in the proper sense because i've experienced that with penicillin.

seriously. fuck that shit.

I was watching this Mexican cooking show about 25 years ago on PBS, the chef called it Mexican butter.

I've loved that term ever since.
 
I love carrots. In salads, cooked, in stir fries, roasted, in a gratin... Yes. Root vegetables are my jam.

I like avocados on a sandwich or a burger, but I have to be in the mood.
