Theos-Talk Archives (October 1998 Message tt00026)

When I was in Adyar I asked why there were no avocados there, and they told
me that if I wanted to find avocados I had to go to Bangalore. The weather
in that city was a little bit cooler than Madras and avocados grew better
there.

Avocados is a fruit from the western hemisphere and already is in India,
just like sugar cane originated in India and represents the main source of
income to Cuba.
