I have always loved the spoon eating of salt & peppered avocados, though
when I was a mere tot (several years ago), eating just half of one could
make my mouth feel odd and my throat would begin to feel as though
swelling shut. For lack of a possibly more proper way to describe it, I
always thought of it as tasting very earthy. Over the years this slight
discomfort has greatly lessened, but it is still noticeable. What is
there in an avocado (and also when having most any amount of roasted
nuts) that causes this, and can anyone here offer answer?
