A MESSAGE FOR THE PEOPLE BY THE PEOPLE – MAKE SMASHED AVO AFFORDABLE AGAIN!

Following demographer Bernard Salt‘s ‘Middle Aged Moraliser‘ rant in the The Australian over the weekend, the internet has predictably (albeit intentionally) been melting down in response.

While Salt’s claims that young people can’t afford housing because they eat out too regularly (statistically incorrect on multiple levels), it’s the cost the man is paying for his smashed avo that’s turned heads.

In his column, he claimed he’s “seen young people order smashed avocado with crumbled feta on five-grain toasted bread at $22 a pop and more” – WHAT? $22 OR MORE FOR SOME ZESTY AVO ON TOAST IS AN OUTRAGE!

Following a gag in Pedestrian.tv yesterday, Sydney designer Drew Kilpatrick has jumped onboard the hype. Tapping into the anger, he’s given us the gift we do not need but will probably buy anyway.

Over on his Bigcartel page, you can pre-order these sun-smart gems. But TBH, he’s charging $3 more than we millennials are willing to splash around – right!?

He told Peds that “I could’ve put this money towards a deposit on a house, but instead I spent it on these novelty hats… And a smashed avo on toast. Obvs.”

Bravo.
