It’s time to take your creativity to new heights and put the avocado in your domain name. Local South African’s are not getting their daily fix of ‘avocado on toast’. According to Business Insider, popular stores like Woolworths and Pick n’ Pay is running short on supply and now are charging R50 for the two-ripe berries.
Quick fun fact: Avos are classified as a botanically large berry containing a single large seed.
Paying R50 for an avocado does seem pricey considering that I usually grab a Harvest wrap after the gym for R48 from Kauai that has an abundance of avo included inside – being overwhelmed by this price increase, I now have the urge to encourage people to open up more online fruit stores that produce, deliver and sell avo’s only because people are not taking the whole ‘avos are not in season’ too well.
Don’t believe me? Twitter search ‘Avocados’ and read what the people are saying.
