The controversial debate about avocados

However, guacamole should not be made every day of the week. Avocados may be delicious, but avocado farming makes a lot of demands on the environment and consumes a lot of natural resources. Delivering avocados worldwide contributes to a global carbon footprint, so we suggest eating avocados only on special occasions and not on a daily basis.
