Fate of the Avocado

What do they do with the avocado after they take the oil out? Can it be made into chips? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.141.6.71 (talk) 08:36, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Citation

the main crux of the article seems to be taken from a company that.. MAKES AVOCADO OIL Any way to fix this? I haven't been on wiki in years... 50.156.59.135 (talk) 23:23, 10 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Contradiction?

"It has an unusually high smoke point, both unrefined and especially when refined. The smoke point of the unrefined form is 482 °F (250 °C) and the refined form can reach 482 °F (250 °C)." Why "especially when refined" if both smoke points are the same? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pcwendland (talk • contribs) 18:49, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Offbeat proposal

I don't really like the single quotations marks around the cultivars Hass and Fuerte (though this is considered good usage).

For my own version, I wrote cv. Hass on first use of Hass, and cv. Fuerte on first use of Fuerte, and then stripped the single quotation marks from every other use. It simply looks better, and gets the point across well enough.

The first use of cv. within the article could link to the page on cultivar, so as to make this plain enough to anyone who cares.

Unlikely my offbeat proposal gains any traction here, but I thought I would mention it FWIW. — MaxEnt 01:54, 6 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
