Bought one in the store on Sunday.

Seemed hard then, now it is soft.

Seems darker now.

How would I best use it now?

Is it rotten? Or just ripe?

It's an avocado, just throw it in the trash and eat some salsa, you will be happier.

Guacamole. Put it on a tortilla with some meat salsa and cheese.

Cut it in half. Use a butter knife to slice it, in the rind. Put those slices on buttered toast.

You're welcome.

take one big clove garlic and mince it up....

put the minced garlic in a small sauce dish with four tablespoons of balsamic vinegar, i teaspoon of olive oil

mix the contents in the dish real well, and add some pepper and a pinch of salt

cut the avocado in half lengthwise, separate, and remove the pit from the half that still has it in there

put 1/2 the sauce from the dish in one avo half (in the "hole" where the pit used to be) and the rest in the another

serve as appetizer with fancy crackers and some wine, (use a teaspoon to eat it)

AvOcado is also good with a sprinkle of sugar; eat it right from the shell with a spoon. Beyond that...turkey/bacon/avOcado sammie, spread on your sandwich instead of mayo, mash up & make guacamole, make avOcado ice cream (high fat content - super smooth YUM,) float avOcado chunks & cilantro in your chicken/green chile soup...the list goes on forever.

They are supposed to be slightly soft when ripe. If it's squishy then it's probably not good. Cut it open and if it's not brown in side it should be good.

If it is good, just cut it into chunks, thinly slice some red onion, chopped up to fresh tomato and add some light dressing.
