The stickers on produce are commonly changed to suit different promotional purposes, but [Asda](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/exceptional) is taking a unique new approach to the labeling system with its 'Perfect for Proposal' stickers.

The new labeling system from the British supermarket retailer was implemented following a current movement on social media that sees Millennials proposing to one another using [sliced avocados](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/avocado-wedges) in place of ring boxes.

As such, the avocados that can now be found at [select Asda locations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asda-flavored-cheeses) are being marketed as the perfect ones to be integrated into a proposal in terms of several factors, including: color, complexion, cut and creaminess. Asda's Adrian Kurzynski describes that: “We want to help ready-to-propose customers find the perfect avocado to make loved ones say, 'I avocaDO.'"
