What to do with avocados to keep them fresh for a long time: a useful life hack

Finding a truly ripe avocado in a store is not easy. And if it is soft, there is a high probability that the fruit is blackened inside. Therefore, in order to taste a quality product, you need to buy it firm, and then perform a few simple manipulations.

The life hack was shared by media nutritionist Myroslava Ulyanina on her Facebook page.

If you buy a solid avocado in the store, you can do one of these things with it:

3. Put together with apples or bananas and follow step 2.
