Clever food hack to tell if an avocado is ripe without cutting it

User @bespoke added: “I think people are only doing this at home after they buy it .”

As for how the other half of an avocado should be kept, there are several ways. 

“If you need to store an avocado that has already been cut, squeeze some lemon or lime juice over the exposed flesh and store it in an airtight container or cling film to prevent it from going brown,” Tash Blythe, food hygiene expert told Express.co.uk.
