FUN FACT
Avocado trees are native to southern Mexico and were cultivated there as early as 500 BC. Spanish explorers learned about avocados from the Aztecs and became the first Europeans to consume the creamy fruit. During the Spanish Conquest, avocados spread to South America, and the conquistadors eventually brought them to Europe.
