Glendale restaurant among those dealing with avocado ban fallout

Editor's Update: On Friday, Feb. 18, the U.S. Embassy announced that Washington is lifting a ban on inspections of Mexican avocados, freeing the way for exports to resume, according to The Associated Press.

In the meantime, businesses and customers are left to sort it out at the local level.
