Notes: Obviously pretty scant, but certainly nutritious. When malnutrition is so widespread, the fats from the avocado are invaluable. From Wikipedia: About 75% of an avocado's calories come from fat, most of which is monounsaturated fat. Avocados also have 60% more potassium than bananas. They are rich in B vitamins, as well as vitamin E and vitamin K. They have a high fiber content among fruits - including 75% insoluble and 25% soluble fiber.
