avocado

Creamy green fruit

Avocado is a fruit with buttery green flesh and a large pit.

The word comes from Nahuatl, the Aztec language, where ahuacatl meant both the fruit and, because of its shape, testicle.

People eat avocados mashed into guacamole, sliced on toast, or blended into smoothies.

I'll have the avocado toast.
