Avocados are a fruit and are sodium and cholesterol free and contain about 5 grams of fat per serving - most of which is monounsaturated. | |

Garden fresh tomatoes are so good on a sandwich. i'm happy with just thick slices on whole wheat with a touch of mayo and maybe some type of lettuce. every now and than I sneak in a slice of bacon or two  | |

Posted: 10/3/2006 5:46:52 PM | | yayaya, I KNOW, but I just thought it VERY ODD that they grow 'lowfat' avocados! k? It seemed interesting to me, nothing more, and I prefer pears just off the tree....gollee, I get the 9 yards for mentioning lo-fat avocados, I swear I won't do it again! I suppose you are all carb haters also~ | |

Posted: 10/4/2006 5:18:13 PM | People automatically assume that all fats are BAD when in reality if the fat is from a plant source like avacados or olives..its very good for ya.
Maybe they should work on making low fat cows instead of low fat avacados.. 
Oh..and not to mention the original topic..a good sliced tomato with some salt and pepper on some nice bread with some mustard..good on its own.. | |
