Hello  person who has been trying to find out if frogs were ever put in guacamole. (Yes, you!)

I noticed that you often end up finding my guacamole recipe, because I use the slur ‘frogs’ to describe the French.

Why do you keep searching for frogs in guacamole? And why do you keep going to my blog, when you know it will not answer your amphibian-related question? I know you’ve been looking for this answer for close to a year, maybe longer.

I will tell you now that I am a librarian and, if you want, I will look up  if frogs were ever historically an ingredient used in the preparing of guacamole for you.

There are all kinds of reference books that would mention that kind of thing.  But I’m pretty sure the green stuff is avocado, not frog flesh.

Awaiting your response.
