The reality is avocado on wheat toastwould save some people money in the long term (from doctors bills.) Fiber. Protein. A good monounsaturated fat that feeds your HDL (the “good” cholesterol.)

Bonus, fiber creates a more full feeling, longer. That sense of satiation means less snacking and less feeling the need for more food consumption overall.

Not bad for $0.40 in avocado and a slice of wheat bread.

Chuck some diced tomato and a gooey egg and you have my attention. I've also just discovered picked onions which add some tang and crunch.

I think the avocado toast meme originated when a rich millennial saw some other millennial at a Cafe and said you're not rich like me because you bought avocado toast

It was a tweet with financial advice. Remember those? Telling people to spend what little they had more wisely and drop the avocado toast.

Probably a United Health exec.

Ah. Maybe I saw reworded tweets based in that then.
