It does, and a perfectly ripe avocado goes well with so many things.
The first thirty-some years of my life were lived w/o avocados. I saw
them as green (therefore suspect) and slimy. Since the first time I
tried guacamole, under the influence of general anesthesia and beer,
I've been avocado crazy. I've never put it on a burger, but it has
been right next to a burger on many occasions.

Really though, nothing fits on a homemade burger other than mustard,
and it's easier to alternate bites with vidalia onions, half sour dill
pickles, whatever. Damn. I just realized that I left an avocado at
work, and I'm not scheduled to be back there until Thursday.
