Almost all of our avocados (and most of our produce in general) is imported from Mexico and other countries. Like, Mexico, Japan and China are the source of almost everything we sell.

āAvocados (Persea americana) are a fruit and not a vegetable. They are thought to have originated in Mexico and Central and South America. Avocado trees were first planted in Florida in 1833 and then in California in 1856. According to NASS, California now accounts for the majority of U.S. avocado production, followed by Florida and Hawaii.ā

The United States is the third largest producer of avocados worldwide, following Mexico
and Brazil. Total US production for 1985-86 (preliminary) was 171 million kg. There are
two commercial avocado regions in the United States: southern California and southern
Florida (Table 1). California accounts for 86 per cent of the total US avocado plantings.
There is a small avocado industry in Hawaii consisting of 334 ha. A wide range of
avocado cultivars are grown in Hawaii, but the major cultivar is Sharwil. Commercial
avocado production has been attempted in the lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas, but
has been limited due to winter freezes.

Due to increased Southern California water costs, they are now costly to grow. California produces 90% of the United Statesā avocados. As of 2013, Mexico leads international exports, with other significant production in California, New Zealand, Peru , and South Africa.

In short most of our avacados donāt come from Mexicoā¦ Itās Cali and Florida. Itās a pretty easy google check. I donāt know if itās just a good media job or stereotypes but most of our avacados have been coming from Cali since the late 80s

Ugh. Iām going to have to make a lot of phone calls tomorrow that I donāt want to make.
So I recently while I was at my primary care physician I had them move all my medications over to a military mail away pharmacy that Iāve used in the past instead of my local Walgreens like Iāve been using.
I called a few days after my appointment and they said I have an account with them but no scripts on file. So I have to call my primary tomorrow and ask wtf
Then today I get an email from mail away pharmacy saying I have scripts ready to be confirmed and to pay for what the insurance didnāt cover. Cool. No issues.
So I try to log in to their website and they say I donāt exist in their system.
I try to make an account and it constantly says I cannot make an account.
So I have to call the mail away pharmacy tomorrow and wonder wtf is going on, why canāt I log in or make an account along with call my primary and ask him where the fuck are my meds being sent to.
Itās just dumb and frustrating.
Edit: figured shit out. Was finally able to register by going to their web based site and not the mobile based site or app. Got all my scripts paid for.
When I got out of the hospital all my meds were around $156 after insurances (I was pissed. First time I ever had to pay for meds in my life) All of them were for a month supply.
When I filled my order with the mail away pharmacy altogether I paid $107 for a 3 month supply of everything. Still dumb I have to pay for my meds considering how many insurances Iām covered by but 3 month supply for less than a cost of one month supply?
Iāll take it.
That man had no mercy or remorse for big women lol

Obviously srk has major losers here who go and shit on dead family members and still donāt apologize. But then i reallize they are shit heads throwing around nwords and acting like they are some edgelord.
Then i reflect and know my mom would say āwhat an asshole he has no classā. And i sit in my home with my wife and my soon to be kid. And damn i donāt care about anything else.
Also stu hates so much good things. He has the gimmick of āhaving my own opinionā which translates to āthis all sucksā who barely keeps up with wwe despite posting about wwe. He admitted that overly positive people make him uncomfortable. Happiness and positivity are no go for him.
I still think srk does have good people. But man the shitheads are just so fucking shitty
