They may freeze well but, IMO, unless you use the brown bag trick to ripen, heating an avocado makes it grossly foul to my palate. I got a Haas delivered a week ago. It looked and felt like it would be fine for guac in a few days. I forgot about it then thawed meat for tacos last night to have tonight. It felt ok. NOPE!  It was impossible to cut. I tried the “microwave trick and felt sick looking at the oil slick it produced, plus it tasted nasty. 

 

  Really? A week old Haas avocado delivered to NJ isn’t ripe in a week? 

 

  It was so bad I probably won’t have anything with avocado for a few weeks and I love them.
