Quote HistoryQuoted: Uh-huh. I am sure all the oranges just changed. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Maybe the avocados will start to taste better, if we get them from other regions. Avocados seem to have gotten really flavorless over the last few years. A lot of fruits have. I can't find a good orange to save my life. Until last year, I don't think I had ever tasted a bad orange. Its like there is a virus that can affect the sense of taste... I never had "the virus" until a few weeks ago. This has been going on for well over a year. And everyone in the house agrees their all bad, too. I literally only snack on cashews and oranges. That's it. I haven't had a good orange in over a year. Uh-huh. I am sure all the oranges just changed. Right ;) Oranges come from many places in this world. I wonder what variety he is eating? |

I think it had to do with the winter storm that hit the south, last year. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Yep. I learned it first hand as well. Had another friend who tried to start an olive oil company using olives grown in the Czech Republic. Had to give up after Italian and Greek mafia families burned his property on multiple occasions, stole his trucks, and tried to kill him twice. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: One of my former employees was from Mexico. He went home to check on the house he was having built for his mom and said he saw more cartel activity than normal. Apparently there are a bunch of avocado farms there and a rival cartel had recently taken them over. I had no clue this was a thing.  Yep. I learned it first hand as well.

Olives dont grow in Czechia, Olea wouldnt survive in winter. Moreover, property burned by maffia would make headlines for weeks, months even... and that didnt happen. Didnt you mean Croatia? |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Fun fact. All avocados are conflict fruit. The cartels have that entire industry on lockdown. And yes that extends to US growers in California. One of the most fucking corrupt industries in the world. Olive oil is similarly controlled by organized crime in Europe. If only, kale. |

Gee I dunno how about they suspend the drug shipments instead? I’m pretty sure we grow a metric shit ton of avocados in Southern California. Like the majority of what the country needs.
