Avocado,

"It's an avocado... thanks"

This quote means so much to me, for it truly sums up my entire feelings about avocados.

Let's start from the beginning. As a young child I was pretty picky and I really didn't eat guac or even avocados. I know- I was so young and unaware of what I was missing. If only I knew then what I know now. I fought with avocados for awhile and I refused to even try one. One day, a dear friend practically shoved chips and guac into my mouth and I was surprised. It wasn't bad, not even a little bit and it was actually quite tasty.

The obsession begins.

I started out only on guac. Just causally with some friends, but it turned into something much more. Eventually I began to crave it so much I would ask my mom to make it. And I soon found out there was more to avocados than just guacamole.

I began to experiment. Club sandwiches with avocado? Sure. Avocado toast for breakfast? Pile it on. I began just eating avocado on the side of my chicken for dinner. I soon changed my own meals to accommodate to avocados. My world has never been the same.

Keegan Davidson, new to avocados, has said "Yeah it's an extra 85 cents on my Chipotle order, but I think it's worth it."

We have heard it all before "Guac is extra." I am fully aware guac is extra and that will change nothing for me! Everywhere you turn it is more and more avocados. It is a worldwide craze that no one can contain. Avocados are not cheap, but it doesn't affect me at all.

So if you are a person who has become addicted to avocados, I understand you. Everything you eat has to have some avocado in it. And you buy like five at a time, but all become ripe at once so you have to binge eat five avocados in 2 days. I am here for you- I understand you. Avocado addiction is a real thing and many people are addicted.

I am here to tell you that we have been blessed with avocados and we need to enjoy them. I am so appreciative to the avocado for giving me many tasty meals over the years. Guacamole has actually changed my life for the better. If you haven't ate an avocado yet, I seriously sugest you do- you will never be the same.
