Happy Cinco De Mayo!

This day each year is the second most popular time of the year to buy avocados behind Super Bowl Sunday.  Americans will eat more than 7 lbs of avocados per person every year.  And if you are on a dating site…mention guacamole in your profile…and you will get more messages than average.  It’s true!

Here are some other interesting facts about it and avocados too:

  1.  The heaviest avocado ever weighed 5lbs 8 ounces.  The average weight of the fruit is about 6 ounces
  2. Guacamole CHEESE is now a thing.  It contains Gouda, avocado, lime juice, chili, tomatoes, onions, and garlic

About 59% of us will enjoy Mexican food today.  Add some guacamole to your meal.  It is also very tasty on toast…or so I have been told.
