Fun fact: in my native language the word for a pit (as in a hard central fruit seed) is directly translated as "little bone" so depending on who you ask, avocados indeed do have bones :3

What language?
Lithuanian :3
Bonian.
Same in Russian, and I believe this is the original source of confusion :)
In some languages, hard seeds and bones are described by related words
I guess if they can make boneless grapes then they can also make boneless avocados
grapes don't have bones....
Yes because they remove them!
Grape deboner, a thankless job... :(
And don't get me started about olives!
if it ain't got bone in it
is
b o n e l e s s
So then my bones are boneless bones because they don't have bones in them.
But then how do your bones bone bonelessly?
They got a little blue pill for that
Neither do bananas
Thank you for posting this first
Kinda surprised people were saying "dead ass" in 2017. For some reason I thought that was more recent.
Did you know that 2017 is closer to the fall of Troy than it is to today?
(Edit: I looked it up, and it seems that it isn't true)
Potato was always boneless.
I bet that'd feel better than a grapefruit.
The bones are the meme, but I want to know which branch of which tree in which orchard grew that seedless avocado. Because grafts.
I see fruit labeled all the time as gluten free at grocery stores.
Fyi for those who don't know. Gluten is created from wheat.
It’s a valid statement, stupidly enough.
A family friend once had a gluten reaction from fruit. Turns out, the caterer presented it with a spray over them that makes them shinier - and that has gluten in it.
The spray also helps to maintain freshness longer, so it’s not just a “pretty fruit sells better” tactic. Though it should be stickered if it’s coated and that coating is wheat derived (not all are).
I have family with Coeliac and friends with other issues. Cross-contamination is real problem for some.
As somebody who has bitten in to a bone in a boneless chicken sandwich at KFC - on two different occasions, months apart - I for one appreciate boneless food no matter what form it's in. Boneless chicken? Perfect. Boneless avocado? Sure. Boneless raspberries? Absolutely. Boneless applesauce? I sure as hell hope so.
Wait until you hear about the Gluten Free Tax Filing Service
He isn't wrong.
My boner is boneless.
Avocado without an I.
Like a modern computer mouse. Balless. Optical avacado.
They're not boners
They're testecados
See, this is why you
my aunt used to try to sprout those seeds in a water jar
