Avocados are a type of fruit that is also known as alligator pears or butter fruit. They have a bumpy green skin, inside is a smooth, light-green creamy part that we eat. It has a big seed in the middle. They can be eaten raw, cooked, or made into a variety of dishes, such as guacamole and smoothies.

Examples:

1. Since the avocado wasn't quite soft yet, I decided to wait a day to eat it.
2. We need to add some avocado to the smoothie.
3. I squeezed some lemon juice on the leftover avocado slices.
