[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]TIL that people buy Whole Foods “guac.”  [/quote]

If you do your weekly grocery shopping at WF, why wouldn’t you buy their fresh made guacamole? It’s maybe a couple bucks more than mid-range grocers charge for a large container. It’s not shipped in, the employees told me they don’t carry it at times because it’s so labor intensive in the back. They make it fresh.[/quote]

Because it is extremely easy to make at home more cheaply and exactly how I like it? Guacamole is literally one of the lowest effort-highest rewards dishes to make at home. [/quote]

plus WF puts something off tasting in their guacamole that i can’t pinpoint.

I also make it fresh. I have 4 teen boys at home and shop weekly at costco. One item is a bag of avocados that are now $8.99 for 5-6 large avocados. I always have cilantro, red onion and limes as kitchen staples. probably realistically costs me $12 to make 2.5-3lbs of guacamole each week.  Being a family of 6, 5 of who are men, I would never be able to shop at whole foods for everyday items and expect anything about it to be economical or comparative to dining out anywhere. There is not a single place within this country i can take my family to eat that is cheaper than making it at home. [/quote]
