Safe To Eat Avocado Pit?

[phillyflyers]

So for past 3 days, I have been throwing the avocado pit into the blender when I make my breakfast smoothie.

For some reason, I always felt bad about throwing it out. So I decided to thrown them into the blender.

Then today I read, they contain a poison. Then I read something else that said they're good for you.

Why so much confusion? Are these fukkin things safe to eat or not?

Whenever we have a party with LOTS of guacamole, or if you cut an avocado in half and only use half - ALWAYS leave the pit in - even in a giant bowl of guac. Helps keep it fresh and from turning brown, plenty of antioxidants, vitamins.

You’re good to go…..

I would just toss it. You have the rest of the avocado. Why worry about the pit?

I think I night be taking a huge gamble with my health.

4th day in a row that I added the pit to the smoothie. Keep reading articles saying there's poison in it but just as many saying it's good for you.

I don't feel any different. Feel like I'm takkng a chance.
