People are proposing with avocados as part of a weird new trend
Avocados have become widely popular as a culinary delight over the past few years with people having it on toast or in their ice cream. But the innovation isn’t limited to their platter, as millennials are using the fruit in bizarre ways.
A lot of people have been sharing how they proposed to their significant other using an avocado, taking their love for the green delight to another level. While a food stylist shared pictures of an engagement ring hidden in an avocado, the trend now has its own hashtag on Twitter.

One firm called Custom Avocados is enabling people to get messages carved on the fruits to pop the question in style.

Although thousands liked this unique idea of getting engaged, many pointed out the downside being that avocados can’t stay green and fresh for more than 10 minutes.
