"Hass avocado trees have been grown from ... a seed bought by Rudolph Hass in 1926 from A. R. Rideout of Whittier, California. At the time, Rideout was getting seeds from any source he could find, even restaurant food scraps. The subspecies of this seed is not known and may already have been cross-pollinated when Hass bought it."
So wtf kind of seeds are they? *shrugs* but they shore tastes goods!
This is straight from the paradise grove plantation website :
"The Persea americana (avocado) originated in South-Central America between 7,000 and 5,000 B.C., but several millennia passed before the Aztecs cultivated it. They named it ahuacatl.
The Spanish, who had difficulty pronouncing the word, changed it to aguacate, which eventually morphed into avocado in English."
Tell me again how the word "ahuacatl/aguacate" morphed to avoado?
Where the hell does the V come from? The spanish word for "agua" didn't morph to "avo" so... OH WAIT LET'S NOT GIVE A FUCK
*flips table over
