I would be all in on the avocado toast and pomegranite seeds diet.

It's not 16 dollar a slice good. Let's be real here.

  Find me a menu where it’s listed for $16/slice please. I want to try it.

It'll also bankrupt you. I feel (because it's a feeling) that HN stays good because it lacks images in the discussion area. The clean look, no adds, limited everything really proves the case that less is more.

  It's maybe fifty cents a slice if you make it yourself

    A large organic hass avocado is between $2 and $4. You need at least half of one to make good avocado toast. If the loaf of bread cost you $5, and makes 20 slices, that's a base cost of $2.25.

      Little is less appetizing than a half-used avocado. Might as well make two slices, so it doesn't go to waste. A friend of mine turned me on to fried avocado. Much better than avocado toast, if you aren't inclined to count calories from fat...

        If I need to store guac, a layer of lime juice and plastic wrap without air-avo contact keeps it green and good. Can't say I've tried keeping half an avocado but I suspect the same technique could work if the acidic flavor isn't a nuisance (there might be alternatives to lime). Maybe a spray bottle could apply it.

        I just stick an avocado half in a plastic container in the fridge. Stays green enough for days. If it gets brown, it's a thin layer that doesn't affect the flavor anyway and you can remove it without losing too much avocado if you don't like it.

        Here's a secret hack to bring back the flavor of old avocado in the fridge for a few days: a half teaspoon of soy sauce and a few drops of hot sauce. You can thank me later.

      You can make okay avocado-toast for a lot less, especially if you've been spending the last year and a half baking your own bread anyway. I don't think I've ever spent $4 on an avocado, but if I did, it would have to be the equivalent of this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baked_potato#/media/File:Northern_Pacific_Big_Baked_Potato_comic_postcard.JPG https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baked_potato#/media/File:North... .
