San Diego Stunned by Mysterious Avocado PurgeSan Diego Stunned by Mysterious Avocado Purge San Diego, California – The once-vibrant avocado groves of San Diego have been eerily emptied, leaving locals mystified and the city’s beloved “Holy Guacamole!” Festival in shambles. Last night, residents awoke to the unsettling sight of thousands of avocado trees stripped bare of their emerald-green fruit. The sudden “avocado nightmare” has left farmers devastated and avocado enthusiasts in mourning. Investigators have been unable to determine the cause of the purge. Initially, they suspected vandalism, but found no evidence of tampering. Theories have ranged from a freak hailstorm to a clandestine operation by guacamole-loving aliens. “It’s like something out of a dystopian novel,” said local avocado grower, Maria Rodriguez. “I’ve never seen anything like it. My livelihood is gone.” The purge has had a profound impact on San Diego’s economy. The loss of avocados has crippled local grocery stores, restaurants, and the once-booming avocado industry. “We were expecting a bumper crop this year,” said Mayor Todd Gloria. “This has thrown our city into chaos. We’re going to need federal assistance to recover.” In a cruel twist of fate, the San Diego “Holy Guacamole!” Festival, scheduled to kick off tomorrow, has been canceled. The city’s iconic avocado sculpture, previously a source of pride, now stands as a grim reminder of the tragedy. “We’re all devastated,” said festival organizer, Sarah Jones. “We had such high hopes for this event. Now, it’s just a painful echo of what could have been.” As authorities continue to investigate, the mystery of the avocado purge remains unsolved. San Diego residents are left with unanswered questions and a profound sense of loss for their beloved fruit. “Avocados were more than just food to us,” said resident, Ethan Davis. “They were a symbol of our vibrant city and our love for fresh, healthy produce. This purge has shattered that.” The San Diego Avocado Purge stands as an enigmatic and heartbreaking chapter in the city’s history, leaving a lingering question mark over what might have caused such a devastating event.
