Think about the most popular stereotypes you've heard about millennials:

That we're the "Me Generation."

That we're a result of "bad parenting" styles.

That we have zero work ethic.

That we're killing every last industry known to man.

That, when it comes to finances, we're about as dumb as a bag of bricks.

That we're lazy.

But don't forget my personal favorite: (note the sarcasm) that we are also obsessed with avocados.

Sure, we're apparently killing off things such as homeownership, casual chain restaurants, and cereal, but let's not forget that we appear to be singlehandedly responsible for boosting the avocado market with our obsession with over-complicating a dish as simple as toast by topping it with an, admittedly very healthy, thing such as avocado roses and flowers.

But before you take all of this at face value, please consider those of us that don't meet these stereotypes. I can't really speak, unbiased, as to what kind of parenting style I am a result of, what my work ethic is really like, or just how well I could manage a budget all on my own, but I can speak to my personal stance on the avocado craze.

I am a millennial and I hate avocados.

Sure, they're great for you. Avocados provide a lot of healthy fats, fiber, and vitamins in your diet and, apparently, they can go on just about anything you want. This is all fine and dandy but, frankly, I find them disgusting.

Sitting piled atop toast, sliced over salads, or even, for some reason, used as a serving vessel for lattes, I find the fruit (yes, it's a fruit) revolting. Something about the creamy but somehow still chunky texture and the baby-vomit green color just does not seem appetizing to me.

I do wish I liked it, simply for the health benefits, but I just don't. I am a textural eater so the mushy sensation does not agree with my taste buds. Deep down, I don't really want to grow up but I also don't want to revert back to the days of eating mashed baby food. Even then, I preferred mashed sweet potatoes and carrots (so much, in fact, that it was all I would eat and eventually turned orange for a period.)

I guess I could come off as trying to be some form of meta-hipster by going against the popular trends that started as going off of popular trends, but I genuinely just don't understand a lot of food-related fads that are going around today.

I don't understand the unicorn craze or the mermaid toast obsession but those I can just attribute to eager marketing and boredom with a grey, depressing world. To those that fall in love with those trends, I don't agree with you but I get where you're coming from. If that $25 piece of marbled galaxy toast keeps you going for another day by all means go for it. I won't be spending that much on toast but you do you.

I just will never understand the obsession with including that vile green mush in every dish.

But that's just me: the millennial that hates avocados.
