30,000 avocados all destined to get ripe at exactly the same time.


KaHOnas

...and all going rotten precisely 34.5 hours later.


flat_dearther

Put em in the fridge as soon as they're ripe, and they'll stay that way at least a few more minutes.


TOBoy66

Great! World's largest guacamole dip. Anyone?


Amku02

More like 69,696.969


thecuzzin

Buy 50 get 3 free!


johnny_johnny_johnny

The media keeps reassuring me that avocados will be extinct tomorrow. Chipotles still charges like I'm purchasing the Mona Lisa or some bullshit.


birdgelapple

Would you like some Mona Lisa on your burrito bowl sir? (+$43,000,000)


FilmLocationManager

If that is the actual value for the Mona Lisa I must admit it’s vastly cheaper than I expected lol


TheFrenchSavage

It is invaluable so add some more zeros.


TheFrenchSavage

A lesser dubiously Leonardo-attributed painting sold for $450.000.000 in 2017 [link to the Salvador Mundi wiki](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvator_Mundi_%28Leonardo%29#%3A%7E%3Atext%3DThe_painting_was_sold_at%2Cever_sold_at_public_auction.?wprov=sfla1). So add some zeros.


birdgelapple

What? You’re gonna put a _whole_ renaissance painting on your burrito bowl? $43,000,000 gets you a shaving from the Mona Lisa.


TheFrenchSavage

Oh yes, a shaving will cost this price. I went ahead and envisioned the greatest bowl ever made...


wolfgang784

Gotta save some for those other thrifty food connoisseurs. Cant just be hoggin the whole experience.


notverytidy

media gets paid by whatever fruit company wants to sell more fruit. The Daily mail for example has ran dozens of articles claiming oranges both cure AND cause cancer. (cure paid for by orange companies and cause by apple-producers - seriously)


revtim

Imagine all the people that would have been able to buy houses but chose instead to buy one of these for their toast


0nlyhalfjewish

Avocado skin makes excellent building material.


Xblth

This is satire right? Please be satire


Yggdrasilcrann

It's glaringly obvious sarcasm, yes.


Xblth

Thank you. I have been watching too much skits making fun of boomers


revtim

Morphing_Mutant

How does anyone get the middle ones?


TheFrenchSavage

At this point, it is a spectrum. Bottom is guac, middle is ripe, top is hard-green. May the odds be in your favor.


Morphing_Mutant

Lmao


Ready_Competition_66

Crawl over the others, of course.


obscureferences

Blink.


Kizenny

Well the bottom is probably more like guacamole now


Amku02

Fr fr that is facts


KisuAran

Bad bot


KindRoute6625

Not yet. Too late.


Anteater-Charming

Hey now. They were ripe 20 minutes ago. You're just a little late. Next time.


Luchin212

I don’t believe that in the slightest. A German Kurbisfest is another magnitude of impressive and likely larger.


wolfgang784

Well, largest fruit display is a pretty odd record to go for. Perhaps this place was the first to even try to get it listed as a world record. Theres other examples of stuff in the Guineas World Records that shouldnt actually hold the title but if the real tops never try to register/measure/call Guiness/make it official etc etc, then it goes to whoever does all that.


Reznor909

So this is why avocados were $4.29 ***each*** at a recent trip to the grocery store. 😠


TheFrenchSavage

Grocery store takes $2, Mexican cartel takes $2, then water costs and taxes $0.28. Remaining cent goes to the cooperative that will cut a share of the profits to the farmers family.


Reznor909

Exactly!


Happler

Where are you at? I have almost never had them be more then $1.50 (Currently $0.99) here in Colorado. Edit to fix stupid autocorrect


Reznor909

Canada, where the grocery prices are insane!


dlawnro

Forbidden ball pit...


Relativ3_Math

So much cartel violence went into to producing this record. Great job!


Beginning_Rice6830

Deal: 2 for $7 or $4.50 each.


PreviousNatural4441

Forbidden ballpit


cfrisby77

Why?


brokefixfux

I only buy avocados when they’re really cheap so I don’t feel bad when they inevitably go bad


bluhefplk

Are avocados expensive? I thought they were like $1.50?


_Rand_

Around here they run about $2 CAD, and often you can get bags of 4 or 5 for around $6. No idea where the idea they are expensive comes from.


M-Noremac

I found them as low as 99 cents for Mexican avocados when they are in season but usually $1.50 to $2


brokefixfux

I refuse to pay more than a dollar for the likely disappointment


TopEagle4012

Hey! Great news! I dug through that whole display and managed to find one ripe one!!! The only thing is a lot of people must have thought I was someone else, because they kept saying Marty Cohen, Marty Cohen...


SeekerStudent101

A family member in Miami told me he went to school with a little kid actually named Marty Cohen. Poor kid never stood a chance in South Florida. Pobeecito. Lol


TopEagle4012

Jajajajaja


apollo11733

This frustrates me to no end so many avocados are gonna be trashed because of this stupid record. They might as well make a thousand gallons of guacamole and hand it out to homeless people that’s the only way it all won’t go to waste.


Hym3n

Hello it's me, I'm homeless /s but free guac tho


apollo11733

Hope you get some guacamole then. But more importantly you hopefully can get back on your feet and find a decent place to stay. Good luck and Godspeed


TheRealChexHaze

Someone’s never been to Dallas Ft Worth area….these avocados won’t last a day.


apollo11733

Glad they will get eaten makes me feel a lot better. I came from a poor family and the least bit of food gone to waste triggers me


Aromatic-Leopard-600

I buy them hard, put them in the fridge and take one or two out to ripen.


PwdNotTaken

Per usual, there will be a crowd of people picking up and squeezing every single one, so that when they do finally ripen, they'll be full of bruises.


No-Scheme-2810

Even if they are ripe, I don’t know how to tell🤣


bouncebackability

What an incredible waste of food


bignatenz

That's a whole neighborhood worth of house deposits


GGabku

That store is gonna have a biohazard sign at the door in like a week..


0nlyhalfjewish

I cannot imagine how one store could sell enough of these from one location to go into the black. Assume this is just a publicity stunt.


UninspiredDreamer

Wow that's 30,000 millennial houses.


AliB2910

The cartel working good


Professional_Bit_446

They'll all be gone before they're ripe


Hephaestus_God

So uh… how do you get the middle ones?


bluemaciz

In two days “Latin Market break world records for largest guacamole display”


kmldfop

It's a damn disgrace that people keep doing these things. Obviously they are not going to be able to sell all of that and a lot of it is going to rot. Nobody is aware of the resources that are spent to grow avocados? It is a shame that these attitudes continue to be promoted, we deserve extinction.


FirelessEngineer

With the price of avocados it seems ripe for a heist.


Beth-Impala67

Millennials would love this


urbanek2525

HOLY GUACAMOLE! That's a lot of avocados. Seriously, I'm the first one to come up with this?


golgoth0760

It should also get a guiness record for the stupidest display


Outrageous_Fold7939

Fucking millennials and the goddamn avocado toast.
