Avocado toast hotspots in New York City #77

Link to the data set Twitter APIs

Data set I queried tweets that mention avocado toast(+ avo smash, avocado smash) from 1/1/2016 to 7/31/2016. The outcome table has xy coordinates so I can throw those in CartoDB and see where New Yorkers are getting their avocado toast.

Data request I am facing an issue. It only gives me most recent 7 tweets. There is no way only 7 people mentioned avocado toast in New York City this year. Something must be wrong. I can share my code.

Interesting story for foodies ! I would suggest you scrape / query APIs of Yelp and other such reviewers other than Twitter to get more data for this project. Our collective suggestion is 'ask Soma' :-)

I love any story that involves food. Would it be crazy to use the Yelp API and create a map that shows the availability of avocado toast all around the US? I assume there'd be way more avocado toast in New York than in Wyoming for example. Could be cool to see. Other than that, I'd ask @jsoma about your Twitter problem.

Hi there, I'm the Playfair Bot! Would you mind posting the appropriate checklist in the main body of your issue? You might have posted it as the first comment, but it turns out it works way better in the actual body of the issue - just go up to the veeery top right and click the pencil icon to edit. You'll probably want to edit the comment to copy the checklist, then edit the original issue to paste it in. Thanks! :pray:
