Save it

The Avocado Saver creates a snug fit over any partial avocado to seal out the air, which is the pesky cause of oxidation — in other words, browning — of the fruit’s vibrant green flesh. You can even customize this gadget to your avocado’s shape with the handy extendable pit pocket.
Grow it
If you did happen to save that pit, you can use it to grow your own avocados at home — talk about serious return on investment! Just place the pit into the AvoSeedo and water accordingly.
