Unfortunately, we had to wait another fifteen years for "Space Moon Brandied Flaming Whole Avocado Surprise" to sweep the U.S.A.

The Aztecs had better aesthetics than the photographer and the stylist, if you ask me.

The other Calavo™ Free-Sample ladies always say that I over-think the display booth. I think they're just jealous.
