For 83 years, Mexico wasn't allowed to sell a single avocado in the United States. A hundred years ago, Americans hardly knew the fruit β€” in Florida it was sold as an "alligator pear". In 1915 California's growers picked the name "avocado" (it sounds like the Spanish "abogado", a lawyer). But only California grew them, and only half the year: since 1914 the US had banned Mexican avocados over a seed weevil. In 1997 the door opened β€” only to 19 cold north-eastern states and Washington DC, and only from November to February, where the pests couldn't survive. California's growers fought it, even in court, and California was the last state to open, in 2007. Then Mexico's growers advertised β€” in 2015 Avocados From Mexico became the first fruit or vegetable brand with a Super Bowl ad. In 1998 the average American ate about three avocados a year; today it's about eighteen. And California's growers now say the imports helped them too.
