Once my avocados weren’t ripe enough for a recipe I wanted to make on the day I was having guests over. I searched for tips to ripen or soften them more quickly. One of these tips was to wrap them in foil and bake them in the oven (the tip specifically said it would help with the texture and not the taste). Well, it took way longer than the tip said it would for the avocados to soften and they tasted like hot shit. It would have been better to just save them for another day.
I once tried every avocado ripening trick i could find in a desperate attempt to enjoy some avocado toast. Let me tell you they are all bullshit. Just eat it tomorrow instead.
Actual avocado life hack: buy way too many avocados, then when they decide to be ripe on their own time, cut them into cubes and freeze them. Now you have avocado on demand whenever you want.
I’m not sure if it worked or not but I read that storing them in a paper bag will help them ripen a bit faster, but not “I need it for this supper recipe tonight” fast. I figure if it didn’t work it was a pretty harmless hack and I still had avocado, I just waited until it was ready to do the recipe I wanted.

The best way to get an avocado to ripen immediately is to plan to eat it in 3 days.
Upon receiving that psychic message, they will commit every bit of energy into ripening ASAP so they can be overripe in 3 days.

Paper bag with an apple ripens everything. Does everyone not know this??
