If our fallout with Mexico causes a disruption in the avocado/guacamole supply...

The BBQ Pit

THAT is what I will never forgive Trump and his supporters for.

Mass deportations, fine, nuclear Armageddon? We’ll survive. Trump becomes a true Russian puppet on the world stage? Again, we can handle it.
But I swear to the god I don’t believe in, if ANY disruptions in the avocado supply occur, and by extension a disruption in the guacamole supply… My wrath upon all Trump supporters will be terrible. The catchphrase from the DUNE movie applies here. The guac must flow.
Be warned Trump supporters.

Limes too. Nobody ever remembers the limes.

3

Buy Californian avocados.

California Haas avocados are the best, and we’ll still have them. Of course, without Mexican avocados, California ones will probably double in price. If you can’t afford them, just get a better job!

And many Americans buy domestic Choquette (or are they Hall) avocados. Whatever those huge ones with the smooth skin are, anyway. They are not only bigger than Haas, and are cheaper, but they’re also flavour-free!

5

The Mexican avocado supply is controlled by the mob, anyway.

[sub]Seriously, it is. I heard it on NPR.[/sub]

6

Would the costs only double? I heard 80% of our avocado supply came from Mexico.

I actually never paid attention to where the avocados came from, I just want to know if I go to chipotle, the guac will still be available.

7

But there will be fewer Mexican immigrants to pick them.

8

Oh, well, then I guess the avocados are safe. Can we convince the Mob to take over the Limes, too?

9

You think the mob promotes the production of cruelty-free guacamole?!!??? :dubious:

10

Mmmmmm… cruel guacamole…

11

And a disruption of both the tequila and lime supply?! We will have Jimmy Buffett fans rioting in the streets. Beware the parrothead army.

12

I heard “guacamole” has been deemed to sound too… ethnic. The name has been changed to “Freedom Paste” in all Capitol eateries.

13

Next thing we’ll have avocado rationing and death panels. Down with socialized guacamole!

I was so hoping with Hilary in the White House we’d get taco trucks on every corner. Damn!

14

Eat Hootersville rutabagas.

The good news is, Mexican avocados will be available for the foreseeable future.

The bad news is, out of sheer gratitude for the new American policies, Mexicans will be peeing on all export avocados.

And don’t even ask about the new mystery ingredient in the “new, improved” Corona!

16

I’m totally cool with blood guacamole.

17

I like the OP’s priorities.

Some things are sacred.

18

I’d like to. I never see anything but Mexican avocados and limes for sale here, and haven’t for the foreseeable past.

19

They’ll have to change ingredients?

20

Man, am I ever glad that I despise the taste of guacamole.
