I wonder what you could do with avocado seeds (besides plant them)? They are so dense, like mini billiard balls. Can you picture playing pool using heavy duty chopsticks on the kitchen table?IP: Logged |

No kidding! I would never have thought you could eat the pits. Funny how I never saw avocado pit powder in the health food store, but I searched a fee web sites and found that some people put the powder in smoothies. The seeds can be roasted and ground as well but I don't know anyone who has done this. IP: Logged |

I love eating avocado diced in salads. Simplest way to enjoy them. "Hippie Salad", with avocado and sprouts, and mixed shredded vegetables. All vegetarian. IP: Logged |
