Has anyone ever actually ordered avocado toast in a restaurant?

A friend of mine ordered it at first watch, it was quite large. Looked good.

Doesn't taste like anything and the sharp edges of the hard crust will make your mouth bleed but it it LOOKS so chic and elegant and bright green. Sign of the times, I guess. Yuppies ordering overpriced snacks as a meal because it'll 'pop' in a photo for their instagram story.

Low-key teases out a likely eating disorder.

No. They often put onion in it, which I hate. And when you ask for it without, you find out it’s premade so who knows how long it’s been out there turning brown. It’s so easy to make it fresh at home seasoned just how I like it.

Why even go out to eat if that's your order? My toddler can schmear guac on a piece of toast.

Guacamole is very different than the avocado on avocado toast.

I had it years ago at Le Pain Quotidien. It was fancy and very filling. My husband loves avocado and we eat it on toast regularly, but it's not the same thing.

Never. No protein. High calorie.

Most young adults eat out and order carry out 15 to 20 times per week. They’re numb to it. It’s not an occasion. They’ve become so coddled and lazy they want a migrant peasant to make and deliver them a snack they could make themselves in 30 seconds. Toast a slice of bread, mash a vegetable with a fork and sprinkle everything seasoning on top. Imagine outsourcing that. My theory is this makes strivers feel decadent and higher rung. Because it makes zero sense to flush money down the drain on such nonsense.

Yes! I'm a savory breakfast person and sometimes an omelet is too heavy. I really enjoy when it comes with a poached egg.

I've had it at fancy places, but Silver Diner does a pretty great one too.

Your kids don't have any idea what a struggle meal is as those struggling aren't buying avocados.

You sure about that? They cost less than a dollar right now.

I don't do avocado toast because it is blah. I do an amazing spicy layered guacamole toast. It is the bomb.

Yup. I belong to a culture that eats flavorful food.
