The Unusuals

So I have to apologize that I have been using this blog as a personal soap box lately (not really). I do not want to neglect the Moustache and it's importance in today's society. I have not watched ABC's show The Unusuals but after seeing this video mix over at Funny or Die, I might just have to check it out. Could be some good summer TV watching and it seems as though they might be giving some due respect to the moustache.

Seriously Part 2, Guacamole w/ Tomatoes

Well here I am again with another problem in our society. Those that know me, know that I love me some Mexican food. Whether it be Taco Bell, a taco truck, or my personal favorite, Thursday night tacos at mom's house. There have been periods of time where I have eaten some sort of Mexican food at least once a day for weeks at a time.

One of the aspects of Mexican cuisine I have come to enjoy is Guacamole. I love the added texture and flavor of the avocado mixed in with everything else. But I must stop at this point and talk about my least favorite food in the world, tomatoes. There is literally nothing I dislike eating more and trust me I have eaten some odd things. It is mostly just fresh tomatoes of any sort. I can handle the cooked varieties.

So here in lies my problem...for some reason many guacamole recipes have tomatoes in them. Now I do not claim to be any sort of expert on mexican cuisine but, I mean SERIOUSLY there is no reason for this, 9 times out of 10 there is salsa and/or tomatoes available for those who want the red devil on their palette. The only place I could possible understand it is if you are preparing it purely as a dip for a party and don't just want a bowl of green stuff on the table.

A good friend of mine, and fellow tomato hater, always said the 86% of teenage males don't like tomatoes. If that is true there is a good chance that a large percentage of them continue to dislike the things into adulthood. So all you aesthetically pleasing guacamole makers out there take a minute and think about what you are ruining for the rest of us.
