Avocados are $3 each here and half the time they're bad. Must be nice living somewhere with affordable avocados.

Do you use an entire avocado for your toast?

Where I live it's $5 a gallon for milk (let's assume 1/10 gallon for breakfast cereal so $0.50 per bowl)

Then it's like $1.00 /100g of cereal, so you're probably looking at $1.50 for a bowl of cheerios.

Where I live I can get avocados for $1.20 each and a loaf of bread for $4.50 (14 slices?) so if I use half an avocado for my slice of toast that's less than $1.

Even with avocados at $1 each it's still way more expensive than a bowl of cereal. Unless you buy brand name cereal at MSRP or something.

The price of cereal shot up in the last year, heh.
