Road sign graffiti pays tribute to our favourite breakfast

$13? Tell him he’s dreamin’! - by Eliza Murray

Road sign graffiti pays tribute to our favourite breakfast
$13? Tell him he’s dreamin’!

A hilarious prankster has added some choice words to a road sign in Victoria, giving a nod to the much-maligned smashed avocado.

Spotted on a road sign 13 kilometres outside of Avoca in central Victoria on the Sunraysia Highway, a witty scribbler added “DO” to the end of “Avoca”, a dollar sign in front of the 13, and “smashed” above the lot.

No longer just distance marker, the road sign now resembles a trendy menu – flogging smashed avocado for $13.

Someone has been defacing vicroad’s highway signage precisely 13 km from the township of Avoca in Central Victoria. And, no, it wasn’t me. But I must say I very much admire their handiwork. #smashedavocado #avocado #smashedavo pic.twitter.com/klZOLRS0YM

Bernard Salt, the columnist who is credited with accusing millennials of spending all their money on smashed avocado instead of saving for a home, tweeted a shot of the sign saying he didn’t know who had done it, but he admired their work.

Perhaps the only criticism that can be made of the sign is the pricing… $13 for smashed avocado is practically a bargain!

In all honesty, the modern obsession with avocados is truly something to behold. 

Not only has it inspired students to create a dedicated tool to prevent “avocado hand” on Kickstarter, but it has also been the inspiration behind this sell-out Easter egg.

And of course, if your proposal didn’t involve an avocado, is it even love?

Recovering caffeine-addict and serial bruncher Eliza Murray feels most at home typing away in a cozy cafe with her re-mortgaged avocado toast nearby. When she isn't reporting on the latest Instagram-shattering glittery food trends, she can be found experimenting with new gin garnishes (hello strawberries!) or biting into an entire wheel of brie (no shame).
