Hass Avocados are the most popular variety avocado in the US. Their distinctive skin turns from green to purplish-black when ripe. They have a pale green flesh with a creamy texture and nutty flavor. Enjoy them in guacamole dip, in salads, or on sandwiches. Melissa's Hass Avocados are hand-selected for excellent quality. Choose soft, ripe fruit and avoid bruising and sunken spots. Refrigerate ripe or cut avocados covered for up to 5 days. Image of the Hass Avocado is from the Hass Avocado Commission.
