You know when spreading avocado on toast is just too hard? Me neither. But thousands of millennials around the world are so intrigued by a possible solution to the problem that they've rushed online to check out the latest viral food hack.

One Facebook user wrote: "I need this in my life!", while on Instagram a woman wrote that she "legit just spent 10 min looking for where to buy this".
Another man was excited, if a little confused, by the novel product: "As someone who uses avocados as a deodorant, I am SO EXCITED about this!!!!!"
The comment threads were dominated by the naysayers, the avocadon'ts, with one writing: "That grossed me out, I don't wanna be eating from the deodorant dispenser, no thank you!"
Amateur botanists were quick to point out that nature already has this covered: "Genius, pity avocados don't already come in something that could store the edible inner" wrote one man.
Fears for the environment were at the fore, as many were concerned about the unnecessary use of plastic, with one woman stating that anyone buying the product would be "wasting more money on harmful plastic when you could just buy an avocado like normal people".
"They are all made for fun at this point," he told Metro.co.uk, "I have my unnecessary bookcase at my office where each invention goes to retire.
"My mind somehow just operates that way and I am always coming up with new ideas to create."
Whether this product remains in the realm of fiction or not, one online commenter was standing firm on the fleshy fruit: "Avocado tastes like moist air".
