Same here in CA as well. The larger avocados were going upwards of almost $2 per a month ago at the local Vons, and that's not even the organics.

At my local store last night, medium sized ones were $3.50 each.  Because Australia tax.

 

On the good side, it's Mango season, so I guess it could be worse.

But Home Foods lowered their prices and luckily Vons did as well, so now their still maybe $1.5 per. Don't even mention going to Walmart for the cheap ones that are so small that they look like a cutie orange. 

 

I am the same way with my wife as well. I like to ease her into different foods because I love finding new and exciting foods, and she like "OMG what's that".

Well, at least the two of you can revel in your enjoyment of balut...  :wacko:

So skip the avocados and make mango guac... mango guanaco...  mango salsa!

Uh huh I really hate about with a passion but my wife loves it. She says she loves the 21 day eggs because they are crunchier. 

 

I wish I could give up on avocados but that is part of the food we give our two younger kids. So we have to go out and buy it.
