Ewwww. Tell Us It's Not So!
YUCK.
In checking out one of our favorite city sites, LA Observed, we came across a link regarding one woman's lawsuit against Kraft for selling guacamole that has less than 2% avocado content. "What else could it be," you ask?
According to a piece in today's Times business section, "Like much of the prepared guacamole sold in supermarkets, Kraft guacamole is essentially a whipped paste made from partially hydrogenated soybean and coconut oils, corn syrup, whey and food starch. Yellow and blue dyes give it the green color."
Send your favorite guacamole recipe to editor@hungrycity.com, along with your mailing address and the first 5 recipes we get will get a free copy of our new edition of Hungry? Los Angeles. While there may be some lousy guacamole in LA, at least we know it's made from avocados!
