Stop eating avocado 🥑
Avocados were one of the great treats I found after moving to Europe. It was everywhere in every supermarket as if it was a local delicacy. And it was indeed delicious!

The sustainability bug hadn’t bite me yet, so avocado toasts became the regulars. But then I happened to watch the Netflix series “rotten” and my perspective about food and avocados changed upside down.

Avocado is usually shipped from south America to Europe, that means a lot of carbon footprint. Also, the avocado farming lobby has created a lot of ills in many countries from mafias being involved to privatisation of river water.

Once I was enlightened by this information, my avocado toasts became rare. I still love them but do not actively consume them, until I came back to India. Well, we have avocado farms in southern India, so that cuts down carbon footprint immensely and the organic farms are not at all cruel to the people around, which doesn’t make it an ill practice.

So here we are, meeting the found and lost love. Yet again!
