avocados not in season.
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO bloody expensive. and they're not even
nice.

The problem with avocado sold in Spore is that it is shipped
from very far and it is picked way before it is ripe. That's why it
does not taste good for you. Fortunately , I travel every month to
either US or Chile and I usually buy them on the way. The one I
just eaten only cost 57ct..very cheap. Below explains the health
benefit of eating avocado and if you look at the nutrition facts,
it no wonder why it is so expensive.
Contrary to what many people think, avocados are a fruit, not a
vegetable, and are packed with nutrients you need and may not be
getting enough of.
Avocados are one of the best sources ofmonounsaturated
fat, the fat known to lower artery-clogging LDL
cholesterol and raise heart-healthy HDL cholesterol. A few slices
of avocado also contain a hefty serving
of folate, one of the B vitamins that helps
promote healthy cell and tissue development, as well
aspotassium, which helps maintain the electrical
balance important for nerve conduction.
Other nutrients include vitamin
E, lutein and beta-sitosterol.
Vitamin E is an antioxidant, which means that it neutralizes free
radicals, which can destroy a health cell or induce inflammation.
Vitamin E has been shown to have a dramatic effect on a variety of
diseases ranging from heart disease to Alzheimer’s. Lutein, a
carotenoid, is linked with heart, prostate and eye health, while
beta-sitosterol is a plant compound that studies show can help
maintain healthy cholesterol levels.
