Avocado Seeks Human for Quiet Meals Together and Potential Relationship
Name:
Avocado.
Occupation:
Popular produce item.
Profile:
I’m a green, fleshy, nutrient-dense fruit. (A lot of people think I’m a vegetable, but I’m totally okay with that.) My friends at Equal Exchange say that I belong to the genus Persea in the Lauraceae family. So technically I’m a berry! A big, green berry that’s great on chips and fish tacos.
I’m vaguely attractive in a squatty, green, rotund sort of way. I may seem tough on the outside but I’m tender on the inside. I love everything from a big party with a houseful of guests to quiet nights for two in front of a good movie. (People tend to overlook Ricardo Montalbán’s inspired, nuanced performance in “Conquest of the Planet of the Apes.”) Depending on what someone has in mind, I can be subdued or I can be wild and spicy. Versatility is my game.
Given my popularity, I’m not always available. So when I am, it’s special. Find me at the Co-op now—organic, fairly traded, and looking for love.
Ken Davis is the Co-op’s head writer. Happy National Avocado Day July 31!
Any possibility for establishing a “hands – on “ Coop community of trained volunteers for unusually busy retail times (not including Board members)
Hi Helen! We’re always wide open for new ideas. I’ll be sure to share this one. Thanks for your comment!
