How low on avocado do you need to be to not be allowed to say that it's guac? 3.5% will certainly do it.

Homeopathic guac.
Homeopathamole
Seems more like sociopathic guac.
This got me curious so I looked up the nutrition page on Tesco's website... The two main ingredients are water and tomatoes lol
INGREDIENTS: Water, Tomato, Rapeseed Oil, Onion, Modified Maize Starch, Avocado (3.5%), Soured Cream (Milk) (3%), Lime Juice from Concentrate, Lemon Juice from Concentrate, Whey Powder (Milk), Sugar, Garlic Purée, Jalapeño Chilli (1%), Coriander Leaf, Dried Egg Yolk, Acidity Regulator (Citric Acid), Salt, Colours (Lutein, Copper Complexes of Chlorophyllins), Stabilisers (Xanthan Gum), Dried Red Pepper, Glucose Syrup, Preservative (Potassium Sorbate), Antioxidant (Ascorbic Acid).
Just like mother used to make.
Gather around children and enjoy some of mamas Tesco Guacamole inspired topping
Except it has sour cream another dairy products in it. Those don't belong in guacamole under any circumstance. Even tomato is iffy and shouldn't really be in there.
Lets play spot the hidden corn syrup.
Modified Maize Starch
There it is!
Is that what it means? Ha, I always assumed that was a thickener or something.
Reminds me of "fruit drink with natural flavors." Not actually juice, just juice adjacent.
Props to them, though, for keeping equal text size for the title so it's not as easily mistaken for actually guacamole.
Edit: or rather pretty close in size
