Whatever, the effect is like magic. You should try it even though its not nearly as tasty as avocado toast with some salt, pepper and olive oil. 

It’s a bit more compact than all of the above, too.Mal

Lol, that stuff costs about $2.50 a serving.  For what? Some sugar and salt and of course the pro athlete sponsorship and the fancy packaging.

Avocado toast would literally be cheaper.

I love avocados and I love toast!

But avocado toast sounds horrific, I mean just really nauseating. Like hey, would you like a phlegm and fumunda cheese croissant?

You won't kill this thread so easily.

Looking for a good deal on a lake cabin?

And guacamole looks like green slime.

Most things avocado don't look or sound appealing at first. You just gotta try it!

I think flying into Boston, Portland, Burlington, Albany and doing New England wouldn't be bad in July. The black flies should be mellowing out soon.

Really good time to go to NH often, from Boston within 2 hrs you have Cannon, North Conway, etc (Portland would be closer to most of those), Mt. Washington. The Dacks is incredible as is the Gunks; however, the Gunks can be pretty slimy in the middle of the summer, the Fall can be the way to go when the temps and humidity mellow out. Rumney is pretty nice then too.

Just saying the Northeast does have a lot to offer in a 3 hour radius from many airports with pretty short approaches once there. Just depends on what you want to do.

 It's got to be reasonably accessible from a major airport (like Red Rock style, but obviously not in July).  For example, Yosemite, 3.5 hours from SFO, doesn't work.
