Hard to beat “25 for free”. How many avocados does a person need?

That's how they get you. Gotta buy a corn cup.

I did not realize cherries could have strawberries.

Is there some disease being spread by avocados or something? I vaguely remember seeing something like that not too long ago. Still, I love me some avocado and would probably take my chances.

Maybe it's because of the American avocado inspectors who were assaulted and kidnapped in michoacan?

Yeah usually it's about 10 for a dollar with purchase* but this time one stand had 40 for a dollar and then we saw the 25 for free

That's insane.

Where I grew up, avocados were $2-3 each.

When I lived in the West Coast, it was less than a dollar.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

Yeah they're legit, these are little fruit stands next to all the farm area, they reel you in with the avocados but make you buy other fruits lole cherries or strawberries, at the store avocados usually cost about a dollar each
