Your average boomer is now in their 70's. They are buying up property and mistreating their kids. Life is good, they think. Then they find out the youth are eating an easy food combo they never even fucking heard about, but one that's cheap and amazing. "Avocado Toast? What the fuck is this shit? Spike the prices on avocado! Push it out of their price range!" I'm sorry sir! Avocado is cheap. It's easily farmed. "Spike the prices" they scream, remembering their days on the stock market. They expect reason. Dominance An end to avocado toast. But it never comes. They watch aghast as young people continue to consume avocado toast despite their anger, and they take it personally. "If it's so good why didn't I get to have it when I was young???" they scream. They all lose their minds as the avocado trees bloom.

The boomers also own the farms that over-planted Avocado to profit off of the 'Avocado Toast' craze and now the market, within the next few years as most trees mature, will become over-saturated with fruit driving the price down. They won't be worth picking.

I have a feeling we will see Avocados going through woodchippers to keep the price high.

Damn millennials, they ruined avocado toast.
