Guacamole Update, Puerto Aventuras, Quintana Roo, Riviera Maya, Mexico

The above represents the fixings for three large batches of guacamole: 27 avocados, 6 jalapeños, 6 small tomatoes, 2 red onions, 3 limes, 1 bunch of cilantro, and salt.  The purchase price was 275 pesos  or approximately $21 USD.  When I return home I intend to price out the same quantity and quality and see what it costs in Massachusetts. It will be a lot more than $21 USD.

The end result sure is tasty though. Cumulatively, the count now stands at 331 avos between 1/1/14 and 2/19/14, usually the cost was in the 30-50 cents each range.

I am going to miss all this fresh produce when I return home to winter in the cold Northeast United States. Of course, we do have modern supermarkets with fresh food delivered all the time but, it's just not the same.
