The avocado is a tree that is native to Mexico. Most of the people think that is a vegetable but NO, actually it's a "fruit". ![]()
Now this fruit is known all over the world and exported to Japan and other countries but it's origins are from Mexico.
Have you ever seen the plant ?
There are several kinds of avocado but the most popular now is this one:
The native, undomesticated variety is known as "criollo" and is small, with dark black skin, and contains a large seed.
Avocado has a higher fat content than most other fruits but mostly monounsaturated fat that is good to eliminate "bad fat" from our bodies, so it is recomended to eat half avocado everyday. ![]()
One of the most popular ways to eat avocado is in "guacamole" with tortilla chips.
But I am sure you have enjoyed it in other ways, maybe in a hamburger?
Or in a "torta" (mexican sandwich) ?
Or sushi ?
So if you like "aguacate" please enjoy it in anyway. It's good to eliminate the cholesterol !!
