    I eat a lot of avocado. I put an entire one in my shake. I usually eat another quarter later in the day as well. I have never ever noticed a change in weight because of it. I am a firm believer that fat doesn't make you fat.

    The baked avocado fries sound awesome, as long as one plans ahead for a bit higher in calories but nutritious and super tasty. Just saved the recipe!
