Yeah, consumers and growers are silly in their own ways which lead to this.

Consumers want the same fruit all year round even though growing fruit(or any plant/vegetable) is very region & season specific.

Growers are big cargo cultists when they see a particular crop getting attention they all rush in. The past 5 years has seen record planting of avocado crops in Australia that now the growers either rip them out or have to sell the farm.

Just enjoy a delicious tasty snack in the appropriate season, and if it’s not on the shelf when you go to the shop then find another in season delicious tasty snack.
