Latest admission of guilt in the nutrition sites state that thought to be mistaken. They have the healthy fat and medical sites say go for it. Google it. 

Depends who you listen to, fat will still make you fat, google it

Indeed,when you remember that both major supermarkets, Makro and 7-11 owned by the same company- a situation MMC U.K. would forbid- it’s a virtual monopoly.

Don't forget Lotus's ,they have it all covered Manufacture ,Wholesale

and Retail ,

My wife found some long thin avocados locally at the Buffalo market - San PaTong....They were great, tasty & were 60B a kilo....

I was pleasantly surprised given the high expectations & poor results we experienced with some of the Haas avocado look a likes....

Can you post a picture what they look like and I’ll look for some. Local are hard to determine when ripe and seems spoilage. HAAS is my favorite when in S. California they were decent prices… one of the imported brands here seem to have roots instead of fruit.

People in the UK are completely broke.

Only a small percentage.

 

The media would like you to think it is everyone but in reality it is only a small minority. Usually those on the BBC have your say section that constantly whinge instead of going out and doing something about it.
