slimcheri New Reviewer	2 of 2 members found this review helpful. Taste Rating: 1/5 stars April 3rd, 2009 at 1:55PM WARNING!!! This particular entry for avocado will add 75 grams of carbs to your plate! Yikes!!! I know it's a verified item, but there must be a typo or a glitch or something. Beware!

anncar80 New Reviewer	Taste Rating: 1/5 stars April 17th, 2009 at 10:46AM This shows up as 75 CARBOHYDRATES when you enter it so beware. Rate this review: Good / Bad
SofiaK New Reviewer	One of 2 members found this review helpful. Taste Rating: 1/5 stars May 6th, 2009 at 11:51AM The carbs are listed with a comma instead of a dot - that's probably why they're showing up as 75 instead of 7.5! Rate this review: Good / Bad
Dawnshyne New Reviewer	Taste Rating: 5/5 stars October 8th, 2009 at 1:25PM An avocado does not have a carb value of 75! Check the nutritional values. They are based on 100 g of fruit which is a little more than half the 6oz (170g, whole fruit) that is usually attributed to avocados. The conversion would give 136 cal, 1.7g Protein, 12.5g fat, 7.25g carbs, 5.7g fiber and 0.56g sugars. Rate this review: Good / Bad
okiemommaof2 New Reviewer	Taste Rating: 5/5 stars May 15th, 2009 at 10:13AM The carbs are wrong when it adds to your plate. Instead of 14g for 2 servings..it showed 150g. Waaayyy off! Rate this review: Good / Bad
jdsully8 New Reviewer	Taste Rating: 3/5 stars June 4th, 2009 at 10:57PM they fixed it. woohoo! Rate this review: Good / Bad
mmmac Gold member	Taste Rating: 1/5 stars July 8th, 2009 at 5:56PM I reported this item for the invalid carbs over a month ago and they still have not fixed it. Be careful - verified doesn't always mean accurate! Rate this review: Good / Bad
echohim99 New Reviewer	Taste Rating: 5/5 stars February 23rd, 2010 at 11:50AM I LOVE avocado! I eat it as a side dish with some garlic salt on it, or on sandwiches or in salads. It cures me of that "fat craving" because it's a healthy fat with NO carbs, therefore, ZERO GI index. Love it! Rate this review: Good / Bad
aweaton6388 Gold member	Taste Rating: 5/5 stars August 5th, 2009 at 7:33PM WARNING!!! This listing for avocado shows more calories from fat than are in the serving total calories. Something is amiss! Though it says it's been verified, it can't possibly be correct. Don't use this entry!! Rate this review: Good / Bad
