[–] LuxSpark@lemmy.cafe 25 points 1 year ago (4 children) Too much avocado toast and Starbucks. permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago* (3 children) Man I never had avocado toast until one time I went to my parents, haven't had it outside that. As a 36 year old who taught my mother how to process? (Cut in half, stab the pit with the knife turn and slice as wanted) I feel my mother will forever think I eat them all the time. I've consumed maybe ~25-30 in my 36 years... That should be roughly $30 U.S. for my life. The fact that they are more than .60 cents is ridiculous now. Sidenote: lifetime Starbucks expenditures, less than $25 permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] fbn@slrpnk.net 21 points 1 year ago you must have like 14 houses by now permalink fedilink source parent [–] then_three_more@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 child) In the 70s boomers ate avocado with fish or something. So it's not like avocado is an exclusively millennial discovery. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] atomicorange@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) True, but toast was invented in 2003. Shortly thereafter a millennial added avocado and the rest is history. Fun fact, “toast” is named after a kitchen appliance called a “toaster”, which was originally designed to warm up pop tarts. Legend has it a homemaker was storing some bread slices in the poptart slots of her toaster to keep the cat from licking them. The lever was accidentally engaged and the bread emerged from the toaster golden brown and crunchy. She tried a bite and was surprised to find it was not just edible but actually delicious! permalink fedilink source parent
