About This Quote

“Who wants avocado?” is a rhetorical question. It means that you are asking someone else to choose between two options. It is used mostly when the second person is in a position of authority. For example: "Who wants coffee?" "I do." "Who wants tea?" "I do." "Who wants milk?" "I do." "Who wants an apple?" "I do." The person who chose the last option is the person who will get the avocado.

In this case, it would be the waiter or waitress. Asking someone to choose between two options is like telling them what you want them to do. They must make a decision and they must make it based on what they chose beforehand.

This phrase is often used in restaurants and cafes. The waiter or waitress will ask customers if they want coffee, tea or milk and then go on with their routine routine of serving food and drinks without paying attention to the customer’s response. The customers, however, will continue to repeat “Who wants avocado?” until their order has been served and payment has been received.
