Starbucks’s food offerings are getting a little greener this spring with the introduction of an avocado spread.

Served in a plastic packet so you can top your toasts on the go, the “organic avocado spread” is made with “fresh, organic Hass avocados, sea salt, onion, garlic, jalapeño pepper and lime juice,” according to the coffee chain. The packets, which cost about $1, hit Starbucks locations nationwide on Tuesday.

Starbucks fans had mixed reviews, with some commenting on the bright green hue of the spread.
