Avocados are a great fruit full of nutrients, including magnesium, vitamin C, potassium and folate. They taste delicious and can be eaten as is or with any meal. I bought a few the other day from a fruit stand and they were from the Dominican Republic. They've gone up in price, like three to four dollars each. These were two dollars probably because they were old and were rotten. I did get a credit though. 
To be honest, I've never tried avocados, we have them in stores, but I didn't buy them. Since they are delicious it is worth trying
