    I agree with the above posts, avocado is full of nutrients. I'd rather spend 280 calories on something healthy vs. 160 on empty calories.

    Dunno if you should...but I've had 1/4 of one on my sandwich every day this week and will have the last quarter tomorrow. They are good, healthy fats.
    Tasty. Satisfying.
    I don't stress good, healthy, satisfying fats/calories.
    In fact, my diary has full fat yogurt, peanut butter, peanuts and avocado in it today.

    Ok, I'm believing all of you. Healthy fat is good. I am not afraid of the avocado.

    You know, you don't have to do everything people suggest on here. You will be more successful if you look up the nutritional info and see if it fits into your macros before buying/eating things.

    Maybe they do that so that their dressing is all whole foods, but I don't know. I don't think I would use that as salad dressing. I do like to make avocado wraps, though, and avocado sandwiches, or cut up avocados and include them in a salad. I usually split one with someone else because they are so calorie dense (but as mentioned previously, full of fiber and monounsaturated fat.

    I heard air is high in calories too and high in nutrients so you probably shouldn't use that either.
