fruits
There are many reasons to make avocados one of our foods. This fruit contains fat that is good for health and tastes good for those who like it. But you might be a bit amused if you know the origin of this fruit name.
The researchers suspect the Nahua people call it so because of its shape that resembles a male body part, as well as its function as an aphrodisiac or a sexual arousal enhancer. According to Nahua language researcher Magnus Pharao Hansen, PhD, the word ahuacatl itself is used in slang form, as Americans use the word "nuts".
When the Spaniards came, they called the fruit with aguacate. When the fruit was finally known in other areas, his name began to change slightly. Americans who struggle to pronounce it then sell it with the name "avagato pear" and "alligator pear", until finally called avocado.
