    It’s just one source but it looks like avocados are the highest price they’ve ever been in Canada.

      That’s actually wild. I don’t doubt it because more than a few wrenches were tossed into the supply chain but avocados in my specific city have been dirt cheap for a few months

      https://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/your-fresh-market-organic-avocados/6000196795547?classType=REGULAR&athbdg=L1600

      Apparently in Toronto you can get 4 organic avocados at Walmart for $7 (or maybe less than US$5).

            800 grams for $7 is $8.75/kilo or $6.37US/kilo which is right in that chart I posted’s range for the last four weeks so I don’t know what you are trying to say here.

              Yeah, but they say they’re organic.

              ​

              https://www.foodbasics.ca/aisles/fruits-vegetables/fruits/avocadoes-exotic-fruits/bag-of-avocados/p/033383401508

              Apparently at Food Basics, until next Wednesday at least, a bag of 5 is selling for $4.88.

              https://www.foodbasics.ca/aisles/fruits-vegetables/fruits/citrus-fruits/navel-oranges/p/033383119427

              and a 3 lb bag of oranges is $5.98 (or maybe less than US$4.20).
