Avocado has become one of the world’s trendiest foods, but they require an extraordinary amount of costly resources and labour in order to grow. As the poster child of millennial healthy eating, this superfood is now a mainstay for foodies everywhere. But have you noticed your avocado toast is costing more and more?

@cristiaolson7327 2 жыл бұрын

In California, where the domestically produced avocados are grown, the price can fluctuate wildly between seasons. When it's peak harvest time, and nearly-ripe fruits need to head to a nearby market for sale before they can go bad, the price will often drop lower than the price of apples, but in the off-season they can cost $2 each. It's kind crazy, though I suppose it makes sense from a supply-chain perspective.

I am 63 yrs old and have been eating avocado since I was able to eat solid food, and presently I eat one every day for breakfast. I do it not because it is good for me but because I love it. TIP: contrary to what the video says, buy only green hard avocados as ripe ones in the store are usually already starting to rot. I usually buy 5 at a time and leave them on a tray on the counter. After 3 days they start to ripen and they usually ripen at different rates so I just pick the most ripe one first. Also we sometimes get 10 or so to make our own guacamole recipe, which disappears in about 15 minutes.

From Australia in June 2022, for perhaps the last year we have been able to purchase avocados for on average $A1.00 each. A glut during that period, a loss of a market to other countries, and the closure due to Covid of cafes, were I think the main contributory factors. It has been for us, on a modest budget, a breakfast staple throughout that time.

In Philippines Avocados are seasonal, and we do have a lot of variety of avocados, price varies on every variety, the most expensive is about 100pesos($2)per kilo and the cheapest would be 25pesos(50cents) per kilo. We usually mix it with condensed milk and lots of ice for a refreshing dessert after meal. Its weird seing it on the top of the bread or other recipes we never known. But for sure its delicious whatever you make it.

Which variety? Hass is always expensive, same as every variety without "strings" and creamy, the watery or fibrous ones are cheap everywhere. Edit: acabo de notar que podía escribir en español xd. Las variedades de exportación son siempre caras (cremosas, sin hilachas, casi maduras y sin quemaduras o cicatrices de picotazos o bichos) porque se gasta mucho en cuidados, las locales que uno compra a dólar el kilo solo viene de igual calidad si el vendedor te deja elegirlas a mano, si no vienen verdes, manchadas y si tienes mala suerte con gusto a pasto o aguadas, detalles que al final del día no importan mucho pero ayudan a bajar el precio.

Avocados are cheap here in the tropics because they kinda grow like weeds, no human intervention needed. In the West though, you can maybe grow one but it probably won't bear fruit. The same can be said of raspberries and blueberries, they're hella expensive here in South East Asia because the weather doesn't suit the growing conditions that they need. Blueberries cost like $8 a kilo in the US give or take, here in SEA they cost $8 per 200grams
