Avocado_ Delicious devil or pass.

@Svet Thanks, Yeah I believe they are high in MUFA, a small amount of PUFA and also some saturated fat, which is good, plus Oleic acid
-
@Not_James_Bond A whole 4 grams of PUFA in a single avocado though. Plus 20g of unhealthy, easily oxidizable MUFA along with it. Definitely 'a couple times a week' would be unwise imo

Did RP change his mind about MUFAs being neutral?
-
@S-Holmes Haidut said in a post on RP forum;
Ray has said that MUFA is more or less neutral when it comes to health effects but since it is unsaturated it should probably be avoided when possible, unless it comes from olive oil.Olive oil also contain oleic acid like avocado, one or two a week hopefully not a big deal as long as calories taken into account

@Not_James_Bond Ray said PUFA was bad though, and avocados have plenty.

I've never had anything with avocado that didn't taste better with butter
-
@AltarandThrone Yeah I don't even understand the appeal of it. I get enough fat as it is. It has negligible micronutrients. I would much rather eat a cherimoya and some cheese than eat that rancid stuff
-
@AltarandThrone Yep, love my butter, love my Coconut oil too
-
@Not_James_Bond @CO3
I've thrown thin butter slices on my chipotle bowl with added sugar and salt, and it tastes so good. -
"Not all fruits, of course, are perfectly safe--avocados, for example, contain so much unsaturated fat that they can be carcinogenic and hepatotoxic."
