Good thing I don't eat that stuff. :allergic: It's gonna be a hi-dolla topping shortly!

I read it yesterday and didn't want to be the doomsayer.

Dang it!! My better half makes the best guacamole ever, and I'm addicted to it. Oh well, I'm already being shanked at the gas pump, might as well pony up for avacados too......

...As long as the agave crop in Mexico is safe, all is well.

 

[BS Gal]

Me too.

Take solace in the fact that the artichokes should be safe. They're grown way north of the fires.

Must find new way to make nachos.I LOVE them.

 

[MMDad]

Florida avocados suck. This is terrible.

 

[desertrat]

Me too.

Actually I don't think it will affect us. I think ours come from elsewhere. At least they don't look like CA avacodos.

 

[lovinmaryland]

avacados 10 for $10...

this week at safeway might as well enjoy them while we can right

I like how when you buy artichokes around here the people at the store have to ask you what the hell it is so they can look up their code.

Happens all the time.

I like how the new cashiers pick them up and get the thorns in their fingers.

Tell them the thorns are poisonous.

 

[BS Gal]

Tell them the thorns are poisonous.

I hadn't thought of that.

 

[RoseRed]

Tell them the thorns are poisonous.

Great idea!

 

[desertrat]

Great idea!

Young skinny dude at register. "Ouch!"

Me. "You didn't prick yourself on that artichoke, did you?"

Him. "Oh, is that what it is? Yeah, a little."

Me. "You have 5 minutes until your throat starts to swell and your vision dims, 10 minutes before it becomes almost impossible to breathe, you can't see and you lose control of your bowels, and 5 minutes later you go into cardiac arrest."

Dude. "nuh uh..., really?"

Make sure you wait until after you have paid and are ready to leave. Also, do it at Shoppers when you have the skinny skeletor looking dude as the cashier.
