Who says you can’t have your trendy brunch on-the-go? Avocado Toast Chocolate Bars are here, and they’ll save you the time of having to order or, heaven forbid, squash your own avocados on toasted bread.
Brought to us by Los Angeles-based, Compartés Chocolatier, the bars contain real California avocados mixed with white chocolate and caramelized toast bits. Make sure to grab a few before they’re considered cool.

Just when you thought that recent Starbucks‘ specialty drinks have been the pits, they went ahead and created a drink… Erh, with a pit in it?
The Starbucks Avocado Blended is the frappuccino that avocado-enthusiasts didn’t know they needed. Made to look like the halved fruit, the pit is made possible with a chocolate sphere. Finally, an avocado pit that’s of use and easily-removed.
Currently, the Avocado Blended is available at Starbucks in South Korea. Although, we can’t imagine these won’t soon wind up in parts of Brooklyn being spread on toast.

The term “You complete me” has never been more appropriate than in the short film, The Pits.
The story follows one lonely half of an avocado wandering the streets of New York City in search of its other half. SPOILER ALERT: The two finally come together in Central Park and, wouldn’t you know, it’s a perfect fit.
Watch this touching tale of fruit-love below.
Avocado stones are a nuisance. Not only are they fairly dangerous to remove, but they take up valuable space where more yummy avocado could go.
Avocado Stone Faces finds beauty in the cumbersome pit, transforming each one into beautiful art. Irish artist, Jan Campbell, carves these avocado stones by hand — transforming them into beautiful talismans. Hopefully, they can protect you from the dangers of avocado pit-removal.

Avocado toast is sweeping the land. The trendy brunch staple has even appeared to have reached the outer rim of Tatooine.
Jabbacado Toast is brought to us by Jenn Fujikawa over at StarWars.com. The yummy Hutt is made possible with slices of avocado and hummus, so it’s healthy, in addition to being nice to look at. Whip up a batch of slave Leia eggs, and wait for Luke to show up and save breakfast. Recipe here.
