<p>^^ Weird. So you just fairly suddenly became allergic to avocados? I hope you went to a doc and got tested for what exactly you’re allergic to so you know what else to avoid. I’m glad you recovered okay.</p>
<p>Oh eyemamon, that is a tragic allergy!</p>
<p>Thanks to this thread I bought a bag of avocados at Costco today. :)</p>
<p>I just put my Haas avos in a brown bag and closed it up with a clothespin. They are hard–almost no ‘give’. Any idea how long before I can have nice soft avos for my guacamole?</p>
<p>^^ It generally takes 3-5 days to soften ready-to-eat but it depends on exactly when the the avos were picked, where they were picked geographically, the particular fruit (even from the same tree), how many are in the bag, etc.</p>
<p>One thing it doesn’t depend on is the color of the bag. ;)</p>
