Maybe not organic avocados but more likely to be eating produce from your own backyard garden.
That was done for cost reasons back then but today local and seasonal produce is a staple of high end restaurants.
- TFNA 2mo agoThe 1960s was well after agriculture as a percentage of the population in the US had declined to a small figure, and relatively few suburban or urban dwellers were growing things for their own consumption.
- jimbokun 2mo agoWell we still were in small town America in the 1970s. :)
