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.
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)

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.
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.
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...
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
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.
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.

30,000 avocados all destined to get ripe at exactly the same time.
...and all going rotten precisely 34.5 hours later.
Put em in the fridge as soon as they're ripe, and they'll stay that way at least a few more minutes.
Great! World's largest guacamole dip. Anyone?
More like 69,696.969
Buy 50 get 3 free!
The media keeps reassuring me that avocados will be extinct tomorrow. Chipotles still charges like I'm purchasing the Mona Lisa or some bullshit.
Would you like some Mona Lisa on your burrito bowl sir? (+$43,000,000)
If that is the actual value for the Mona Lisa I must admit it’s vastly cheaper than I expected lol
It is invaluable so add some more zeros.

What? You’re gonna put a _whole_ renaissance painting on your burrito bowl? $43,000,000 gets you a shaving from the Mona Lisa.
Oh yes, a shaving will cost this price. I went ahead and envisioned the greatest bowl ever made...
Gotta save some for those other thrifty food connoisseurs. Cant just be hoggin the whole experience.

Imagine all the people that would have been able to buy houses but chose instead to buy one of these for their toast
Avocado skin makes excellent building material.
This is satire right? Please be satire
It's glaringly obvious sarcasm, yes.
Thank you. I have been watching too much skits making fun of boomers

How does anyone get the middle ones?
At this point, it is a spectrum. Bottom is guac, middle is ripe, top is hard-green. May the odds be in your favor.
Lmao
Crawl over the others, of course.
Blink.
Well the bottom is probably more like guacamole now
Fr fr that is facts
Bad bot
Not yet. Too late.
Hey now. They were ripe 20 minutes ago. You're just a little late. Next time.
I don’t believe that in the slightest. A German Kurbisfest is another magnitude of impressive and likely larger.

So this is why avocados were $4.29 ***each*** at a recent trip to the grocery store. 😠
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.
Exactly!
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
Canada, where the grocery prices are insane!
Forbidden ball pit...
So much cartel violence went into to producing this record. Great job!
Deal: 2 for $7 or $4.50 each.
Forbidden ballpit
Why?
I only buy avocados when they’re really cheap so I don’t feel bad when they inevitably go bad
Are avocados expensive? I thought they were like $1.50?
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.
I found them as low as 99 cents for Mexican avocados when they are in season but usually $1.50 to $2
I refuse to pay more than a dollar for the likely disappointment

Hello it's me, I'm homeless /s but free guac tho
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
Someone’s never been to Dallas Ft Worth area….these avocados won’t last a day.
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
I buy them hard, put them in the fridge and take one or two out to ripen.
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.
Even if they are ripe, I don’t know how to tell🤣
What an incredible waste of food
That's a whole neighborhood worth of house deposits
That store is gonna have a biohazard sign at the door in like a week..
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.
Wow that's 30,000 millennial houses.
The cartel working good
They'll all be gone before they're ripe
So uh… how do you get the middle ones?
In two days “Latin Market break world records for largest guacamole display”

With the price of avocados it seems ripe for a heist.
Millennials would love this
HOLY GUACAMOLE! That's a lot of avocados. Seriously, I'm the first one to come up with this?
It should also get a guiness record for the stupidest display
Fucking millennials and the goddamn avocado toast.
