“I don’t care about guacamole recipes. What will you do about guns?” Piers Morgan tweets to President amid latest Internet controversy

The Internet has united for one very important cause: keeping peas out of guacamole.

President Obama joined other Americans in voicing concern on Twitter Wednesday, stating he prefers the “classic” arrangement over a green pea guacamole recipe proposed by the New York Times.

The paper’s Melissa Clark advocated putting green peas in guacamole, saying it adds “intense sweetness and a chunky texture” to the otherwise creamy dip, referencing a collaboration between ABC Cocina’s chef-owner Jean-Georges Vongerichten and his chef de cuisine Ian Coogan.

And peas in guacamole is about the only issue that Jeb Bush and Obama disagree on.

[skeeter]

BTW Bush obsession with things associated with hispanic culture is psychotic.

[Fiji Hill]

I don’t care about guacamole recipes.

Why would he? Piers Morgan is English. He probably wouldn't know a chimichanga from a chile relleno.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

I don’t think Bush has developed a taste for FIDO pate’ as yet.

I just returned from Spain ( an authentic Hispanic nation ) not an avocado in sight - not green peas for that matter unless you count the Brit pubs in Benidorm, which I don’t

[waterhill]

Didn’t the won tell us to “eat your peas” a few years ago?

[SuzyQue]

Putting peas in guacamole IS a big deal! Abomination!

Who thinks this kind of stuff up?

[SuzyQue]

I suspect it’s more of a Tex- Mex/California kind of thing.

[null and void]

All we are saaaaaying, is give peas a chance!

[null and void]

Who thinks this kind of stuff up?

Liberals.

James Michener writes in "Iberia" (1969) -

. . . " Mexican culture is unimportant but for its inherent similarities to Spain -

Jebby, there is no guacamole in Spain

[spiderpig]

Piers who? Doesn’t ring a bell...

[driftdiver]

Pea farmers are seeking to take over the world.

[headstamp 2]

These are the national issues today.

[atc23]

Who thinks this stuff up?

The lowest of the low pandering politico class of dimwitted mouth breathers like Jeb Bush. He actually thinks he can win a single MexiVote with a guacamole recipe. OMG
