Former Vinaigrette employee, Brenna Taylor, spoke about the frenzy of avocado on the salads served at the restaurant.

“So many people started wanting avocado on their salads this year. Not many people were bothered by the extra $2 cost, but Vinaigrette does see its fair share of avocado enthusiasts,” Taylor said.

This may seem like it’s too good to be true, because it is. Although avocados are healthy and contain many valuable nutrients for your body, they are a high in fat food.
