I got some pictures of an avacado I bought but it’s not letting me upload it right now. I’ll try again tomorrow and I’ll try the avacado I bought tomorrow as well. Disclaimer I’m in a different state so it might be a different avacado then the one I get at home. It doesn’t say on the sticker but it looks the same

I bought an avacado with the stem off to the side with the fruit going slightly above the stem. I think it’ll be ready tomorrow to eat.
Disclaimer I am also in a different state at the moment so they might not be the same avacados I get at home. I’ll update how this one turns out.
3·2 years agoIt’s absolutely insane what they charge. Another example is an MRI
I had an MRI done a few months back. I took probably max 30 minutes of the machine’s time. My bill was $5000. Fortunately insurance covered all but $200, but collectively it raises all of our insurance rates when a hospital charges $5000 for an hour test.
I did some math. A new MRI is 1 million to 3 million dollars. We’ll go on the upper end of 3 million.
Let’s say they do 8 MRIs a day.
They make $40,000 a day per MRI A 5 day work week they bring in $200,000/week $800,00/ month
That MRI is paid off in 4 months.
I get there’s other expenses. Rent is a few thousand a month. The techs probably made $20 a piece while I was there. There’s definitely macitence on the machines. But come on? $5,000 for an MRI?
Let’s go a little deeper and see why the actual machines are so expensive. Are they actually that expensive or is GE, Siemens, Phillips making a huge markup?
I don’t hate capitalism like a lot on here, but I believe our needs health, education, housing, electricity needs to be highly regulated and it should not be for profit.
Also sorta unrelated but not really, but I love bringing up that Corporations should not own single family housing.
Agreed. And start regulating and capping the prices of the needs like housing and healthcare
1·2 years agoGot that one! Thank you!
I’m down to this and the target one. Thank you!!
Thank you I’m learning so much today!
It kinda looks like the same material. I’m at work and I’ll keep looking when I get off tonight and let you know what I end up going with
Lmaoo why do I have a hotel blanket
Thank you!!
Thank you. Found a similar on Target I’m looking at.
Thank you very much. Whole Cloth quilt is looking like what I’m looking for
🤣 I never even noticed
If they were $3 here I would’ve given up on Avocados a looooong time ago
Definitely trying this on my next one
We only have Haas from what I’ve seen, I would love to try a different type. Once the haas go black they get very very soft for me and I assume they’re bad. Can I store them so the skin goes black but the inside stays safe to eat?
That could be my issue. We don’t have long avocados they’re all small and round. I’ll be on the lookout though
That’s pretty much what I’ve been going for. Maybe something’s wrong with me
Next time I get an avocado I’ll make a video. I try for the cucumber feeling. That seems to be about my best success rate for a good avocado
Idk how I missed this comment originally but it’s very interesting. I hated every vegetable as a kid, I still don’t like most of them but I’ll push myself to eat them. I do enjoy cucumbers, and a select others fresh vegetables. (Once they get cooked… 🤮🤮🤮)
When avacados are “good” I friggin love them. It’s literally heaven for me. Idk what the deal is but I took advice from everyone in this thread and I bought a avacado and I’ll post a little update when I try it tomorrow.
