Living in San Diego, almost all of the avocados I buy are locally grown, BUT I have bought Mexican avocados before-going to read that article. I love reading about Food Politics, but, like you, prefer to leave the writing to others.

It was always served with Fritos and I never liked Fritos so I just dipped my fingers in it. Plus she put hard boiled eggs in it too, which really is not a bad thing. In any case, we've both come around and now make some seriously great guacAbbe@This is How I Cookhttp://thisishowicook.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3762185027013883155.post-23924426943577678802014-06-05T14:47:00.397-04:002014-06-05T14:47:00.397-04:00I don't blame you, Lauren, but not all avocado...I don't blame you, Lauren, but not all avocados are tainted. :) Foodwanderingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11637278501455738531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3762185027013883155.post-48275513874262254512014-06-04T21:32:04.511-04:002014-06-04T21:32:04.511-04:00Is it wrong that I don't want to read that lin...Is it wrong that I don't want to read that link?

Though, like you, I don't write about food politics, I refuse to buy imported avocadoes. Avocadoes have a long season in the US and for the short time they are out of season I prefer to live without them and just wait.

With that being, I came across, particularly one professional writer that irks me when they write about the subject.

I'm not educated enough and there are people far smarter and knowledgeable than me who write eloquently on this topic. This was a great read. I had no idea avocados were so popular and widely grown in Israel and India! You definitely taught me something today.
