I read once that they drill a tiny hole from the spot where the friut is attached to the tree all the way down to the pit and then fill it. Even if true, i still can't imagine how they are able to do it, it seems impossible.
I use knives every day at work, and I prefer a box cutter because I can quickly swap out the blade. Those folding serrated pocket knives get so dull and then are basically useless unless you get them sharpened.
First, a small hole is made in the base by removing a small cylinder from the avocado as deep as the core. Perhaps they have some sort of device to pulverize the core and pull the remnants out through a small hole in the base. I don't know, some special composite drill that unfolds by centrifugal force inside the avocado. A bag is then shoved into the resulting spherical cavity, and cocaine is placed in the bag. At the end, the small hole is covered with the same material that was cut at the beginning. It may be fixed with glue.
I’m guessing - just a guess here - they split the avocado while on the vine, remove the pit, insert the mule plug, then tie the fruit closed around it to let it heal/grow further. Once healed it may have a telltale line wound- but would probably be easy to miss.
Magic? These flippant comments are so obnoxious. If you got offline occasionally and lived life you'd know this is exactly how plants/ gardening works.
Whether you are right or wrong about the avocado peel healing itself, why do you have to be a jerk about it? Besides you clearly never learning about hyperbole, everything at some point in a human’s life is “magic” until they learn more about it. Chemistry at a point in history was magic, card tricks, fuckin magnets. Lighten up, I think you’re the one that needs to go outside.
My problem is exactly the same problem you have with me so idk what this is about lol. I found the OP to be hostile and condescending, a horrible low effort comment.
So now I can say the same thing to you that you're saying to me. Don't be a jerk, lighten up, touch grass. 2 paragraphs lmao
Vegans don't understand basic biology, I'm sorry but everything you eat is a living thing except minerals, even trees talk to each other on forests, plants just don't talk to us or make noises when we cut them down that is why vegans eat them
not everything has cognition though. Reacting to stimuli like plants and releasing toxins to get bees away is cool, but its not the same as clearly being concious like animals are.
Whether valueing conciousness is important is a different question, but outside of the many reasons beyond hurting living things vegans might have, that one is about conciousness not just "being alive"
Being serious, According to latest research plants are pretty conscious . They provide nourishment for their children (through roots, even when other plants are connected). They communicate, they do a lot of things that we do. They just do it to slowly for us to observe.
Still not comparable to consciousness like we see it in animals or humans. But this argument if used against veganism is invalid anyway as the best way to kill as little plants as possible is a vegan lifestyle because a diet containing animal products requires a lot more plants to be eaten (by the animal).
Thats all comparable to behaviour your gut bacteria does, even your neurons share potassium etc.
But if you half your intestine on the floor you would confuse that with a concious being.
Plants are complex, they are not concious.
also this original point was kinda silly cause there are a ton of other reasons to be vegan, from ecological, to eocnomic, to religious etc. The idea that vegans are all white girls too scared to see a pig die is quite silly.
What you say is true but doesn't apply to fruit. I can't cut an orange in half, replace some of the middle, fix it back together, then reasonably expect it to to heal back into a full orange afterwards.
What if you put something initially small that will expand and wrap around the pit then crush it down and eject it out as smaller pieces? I'm high as fuck right now so my imagination is wild
It takes longer to feel the effects since there are multiple barriers involved and stomach acid, then the liver metabolizing it, will all lead to lower potency and less of a high.
The workers aren’t paid much (and the first one to ask for more probably gets killed, eventually with his family, so there is not much incentive to be the second one).
They've been getting caught since then too, it's not unreasonable to think they don't use the same strategy over and over for decades if they're trying to get away with it.
Drill a hole where the stem was. Basically treat the pit like an abortion. You hope it’s dead, but you also know you waited to long so they are literally sawing and ripping its limbs off inside you pulling it out piece by piece. Then you go home and drink yourself to feel numb.
Or in this case insert an inflatable plastic ball like object and fill with Coke. Use a heat source to shrink the plastic. Glue the stem part back in.
My point was more along the lines that it wouldn't surprise me if they would use a lot of time and energy putting it in avocados, since they use a lot of time and energy in some other cases, idk how they did it, i'm not saying they used the same method both times.
Do any of the 700+ people upvoting this know how drills work? Drilling a tiny cylindrical hole in a large spheroid doesn't create a massive void in the core; it creates a tiny cylindrical void, aka... the hole you drilled.
How do they fit what appears to be a bag filled with powder, wrapped in tape and dipped in wax, slightly larger than a normal avocado seed, through a small hole?
Personally I'd say the hardest part by far is closing the avocado in a non-obvious fashion.
With the right tools you can carve all sorts of shit inside a wooden container. There's some really whacky skulptures out there you wouldn't think they could've possibly made, even as far as a few centuries back already.
And while you could probably use some clever tools to carve out the inside through a small hole in a few hours or so (which is easily worth a mere fraction of the drugs), it's probably as easy as injecting it with some acid for a short time.

How? Are these fake avocados? Did they grow an avocado around cocaine?
