Your's looks 1000 times better than anything I can get in a local Chinese restaurant.

I had a 1lb lobster tail covered in clams, mussels, shrimp...... On top of risotto. Wife had peppercorn crusted filet mignon. She cuts me a few pieces of the peppercorn crusted part. Yum!

What is this with avacadoes? I had two each of same firmness and coloring. I open up one and its largely brown with very little green or yellow. I opened the remaining one and it was only green and yellow, not a bit of brown or black.
Meanwhile, I have ingested asperagras all morning long and am about to ingest a potassium pill to boot.

This is what a ripe edible avocado
looks like. If's any other color,
cut out the bad spots or toss it.

The local grocery store has a bin of 4/1.00 avo's now. I got a couple of them, they are small Hass Avo's. When I stepped up to the bin, sure enough some woman was squeezing every avocado in the pile.

Try it, pinch one, wait a couple days then open. You can see bruises where it was pinched. Same thing with apples, banana's and probably other fruit.

I get the green ones and let them ripen on the counter.

They must have thin skinned avo's
in AZ. I've eaten 1 a day for years
and buy them 10 at a time. I
squeeze every one, everybody
does, and have never seen a bruise.
They're always in pristine condition
when I cut them open.
I also squeeze all them again at
home when I pick one to eat,
no bruises. Most of our avo's
come from Central America.

They certainly sell a variety of quality's here throughout the year. These 4 for a buck ones are Mexican and questionable quality.

What is causing the ones that are blackish inside to be blackish, or bad spots?
