for consuming too much avocado toast

Darn. My 23-year-old son has been eating avocado toast. I buy him the whole-grain bread at the "used bread store" for $.79 a loaf (and buy-3-get-1-free).

I find avocadoes revolting. I told him that he needs to wash-rinse-dry-putaway the bowl he mashed the avocadoes in, instead of leaving it in the sink for the help. Otherwise, when I find avocadoes in the kitchen, I will give them to the neighbors.

Straightened right up, he did.

I love avocado, but why eat in on toast? My favorite way to eat avocado is to slice it open and eat it with a spoon.

I wish you lived by me. I'd take all those nasty avocados off your hands.

growing up we did NOT have access to avocadoes....too expensive for our working class family...

we didn't have much soda either...except ginger ale when you were sick or a special picnic that our church choir put on...

these young people have more disposable money to waste....

let hard times come and see how many avocadoes and latte's and thai noodles they're going to be able to afford...

they'll learn how to make banana bread and pot roast pretty dang quick...and potatoes...nice cheap wonderful and healthy potatoes.

"I find avocadoes revolting."

I find them revolting and disgusting.

Hope all is well at least once you clean that bilge out of your kitchen.

After being out of it and kind of sick all winter I did some outdoor work (trimming high-up tree branches) today. Kind of hazardous for an old man but didn't hurt myself. Subsequently, however, I started the lawn mower (pull rope) and nearly broke my hand. Ice and naproxen sodium.

Avacados are very high in cholesterol. I learned that *after* I developed a liking for guacamole. I thought this was most unfair.
