Avocado

It seems like some of you do eat them. Just curious what kind are safe and in what quantity. Are Haas okay?

I can eat a small amount of avocado once a week. It does have a HFI-significant amount of sugar in it, so when I first met avocados I ate too much and got sick.

The Haas/California avocados are safer than those giant Florida avocados (Florida ones taste more watery and less creamy).

Haas Avocados have 138 mg of Sucrose and 184mg of Fructose per 1 cup of avocado. I typically eat about 1/4 a cup without noticing any symptoms.

Thanks colormist. That helps. I think I may try a little in a chicken salad and see how she does with it. 🙂
