  • Can my menu include costco avocadoes?

    My husband and I are Costco members and I really enjoy their avocadoes.

    I am starting induction today. I see that I'm allowed 1/2 of an avocado according to the book and would like to dress my hamburger patty with a half avocado and some mayo. Costco's avocadoes are darker and much, much larger than the ones I buy at the regular grocery store. Should I be eating less than a half if they're unusually big?

    Jenny -

    Hi there and welcome to ADBB I would say that the 1/2 an avocado that you're allowed, is more than likely based on an average sized one. I have not eaten one as of yet lol.. I'm sure that you will get some other replies from fellow ADBBers, that may have more knowledge on this subject. I'm suspecting though, that you should go with your intuition on this one.

    I wish you great success on your new journey.

      It the avocado is really big like that maybe more like a third would be in order.
      I like hamburgers with avocado too. Great stuff avocado. Fatty fruit with lots of nutrition.

        I believe Dr. A says we can have "1/2 of a small" avocado.

          I have seen those giant Costco beauties and I use a third of one as my count.
