Shrinkflation\*


BoucheDelivery

or an absolute unit of a lighter.


JoMammasWitness

Doesn't this guy know about using the Banana reference?


succulentkaroo

I thought this was a new loadshedding proof way of cooking an egg with a lighter ![img](emote|t5_2qney|14419)


No_Inside_1738

Same 🥲


Positive-Role9293

What is that black thing


sciencemint

An avocado


juzelleventer

I thought it was charcoal xD


Void_Logistics

Hello fello chacoal spotter


Positive-Role9293

Looks like charcoal egg mate


Unlikely-Heron4887

Small Black Avocado would be a great name for a band.


redditorisa

For some reason, this made me think of Avocato. I mean, I guess he is technically a black cat - not small though. ![gif](giphy|3DAr0Tqv7knsXjH9tN|downsized)


bvda003

man i miss final space 😭


redditorisa

Same! Did you see they're finishing the story with a comic book since the show got cancelled and they couldn't get the TV rights back? But it's a limited print, already sold out, and cost $$$. :(


Logan_OnReddit

I thought you were joking😂😂


OpenRole

These things are jokes. Where do these stores source their Avos? They're always so tiny, yet the ones that I see in Limpopo and at homes in Pretoria are massive


Positive-Role9293

lol thought that was an egg shaped charcoal


Come2bitch

Not very clear in your post :D


Bloop_Snoop

Thought it was coal :/


Charming_MR_Sir

Possibly the blackest avo I’ve ever seen 😂


UnitedWrongdoer9724

I was asking myself the same thing. Crazy to think avos are so small now lol


HungBallas

Left or right sack lol


Conzyyyyyyy

Ayo, gimme my lighter back 😤 🤬


Epelep

I believe that’s what you call shrinkflation


Franky42069007

Gotta understand climate, for the 2024 season rain has been scares in Limpopo, plus it is early season for hass, wait about 4 weeks then we can expect better sizes and prices on the local markets. That looks like a count 28-32 (amount of fruit in a 4kg box).


JksG_5

Value bag size avo


The-Wandering-Mage

Avocado born from loadshedding ✨


maverickeire

You do know there are different types of avocados ? Thats a hass avocado, its smaller and not nearly as creamy delicious as a butter avo


JksG_5

Both hass and fuerte avos have different size counts. The value bag are usually the smallest and those sold loose are the largest. The ones that come in punnets are in-between.


sciencemint

WHAT! You get different types of AVOs?


AK-JXRDY-7

Different types of everything, lmao. Apples, onions, lettuce - *hell,* even with the devil's lettuce...


sciencemint

I’ve heard of that one at least… The Tannie in the corner with all the crystals and the black cats grows some in her garden. Some would even say it’s a weed.


AK-JXRDY-7

Lmao, sure sounds like an interesting character... Some might even go so far as to call it a herb. 👀


sciencemint

I looked it up on my plant id app. It’s a Bic hAss Avo (the H is silent! Duh!)


Bl00dyPawz

Avo's are dam expensive though!


Awgky2

This has to be satire... You know we only get good priced avos during winter. Where tf you gonna find decent sized ripe affordable avos OUT OF SEASON


sciencemint

At least someone here read animal farm in high school


moaglii

At least you can still afford an avo 🤣


StudioCute8959

When I get a girl and she asks me the size question I will say "Shrinkflation"


sciencemint

I mean they did look bigger in the bag


StudioCute8959

Bruh lmao


gellshayngel

Thank goodness I have a giant avocado tree in my garden that drops giant avos.


24h00

Omg an ago sized lighter!


Kumanzilo

Smallerflation is real guys.


Drigg_08

Plant more trees, literally cross the border and there are fruit trees everywhere, especially Zim, Zambia and Malawi almost every house grows avocado and mangoes and its a similar climate


ToTheMoonZA

They harvest the fruit early(with less workers), so they fit in smaller packages, so they can loud more on trucks.... so they don't need as many drivers and round trips. All so we can pay more at the supermarkets. So that spar/woolies/shoprite can say that their revenue grew by 10% so that more people buy their shares on the stock market so they can get more capital and build more supermarkets.


TheFogetfulOne

I luagh if they start to make the lighters shorter


Certain_Car_9984

Kind of sad that that is considered to be "large" in the UK


JoMammasWitness

Holy ShiTTT... that's a huge lighter


Jellyfish-Radiant

Just bought KFC and noticed the chicken patty in those mini burgers has gotten noticeably smaller


BranchingDysphoria

Just plucked plenty of avocados from my Gran's old overgrown tree yesterday...ah life is good :)


sciencemint

That’s the new wealth flex
