First, that avocado is under-ripe. They are hard until they are ready to eat and then they get buttery soft, like bananas.
Second, only the green flesh tastes good, the outer skin is leathery and gross and the pit is hard and not edible, so like a mango, you gotta skim and pit it.
And third, avocado really isn’t something you eat by itself. It’s kinda like vegetable mayonnaise, fatty but without a ton of its own flavor so it’s almost always part of a dish with some lemon or lime juice or other acid or something salty like soy sauce.
Disagree with the third. Not your description, but the eat by itself part. It can be great either way, just straight or as a mayo. Though it’s probably more healthy as the supliment than just by itself.
The avocados I was used to in South America were really flavorful and I ate them raw. Now I’m in Europe and they’re tiny and bland, though I still eat them raw.

Yep, a half an avocado can make a nice breakfast if you’re not very hungry and it has a decent amount of protein.

Guacamole is essentially just avocado. Some onion, lime, salt and pepper, and maybe some tomato, but that’s usually it.
