Avocado
Avocados (alligator pears) are pear-shaped fruit with a rich, creamy flavor. “Alligator pears” are a name given mainly due to their shape and the leathery appearance of their skin. Avocados are available in many varieties, but the most popular of all is the creamy Hass variety.
The edible portion of the avocado is the creamy flesh within, which is light-green in color, and not sweet. The approximate weight of avocados is between eight ounces and three pounds, depending on the variety.
It is harvested early and then allowed to ripen gradually when it is sold commercially. This is why avocados are called climacteric fruits, which only ripen after harvesting, similarly to bananas.
