Question

how did the avocado, one of americas favorite foods, come to be? wild avocados once were small and had large pits surrounded by thin flesh—rather unappetizing to humans. thousands of years ago, people in central and south america enhanced the avocado through cultivation, making it fleshier. more recently, this tasty fruit exploded in popularity in the united states. however, as enthusiasm for avocados grew, consumers faced a new issue. all avocados eaten in the united states were grown in california, which couldnt produce them year-round. to help meet demand, import restrictions were loosened, and avocados were imported from mexico. most varieties of avocado didnt ship well, however. they ripened too fast or bruised easily. luckily for consumers, a grower developed the hass variety, which ripens slowly and keeps for a long time.
