Unlike most fruit, avocado gets the large majority of its calories from fat, mostly the monounsaturated kind, with only a little sugar. Its creamy flesh is eaten sliced on toast, mashed into guacamole or blended into smoothies. Because the calories add up quickly, it helps to measure portions: these values are per 100 g of flesh.
Typical portion: Half of a medium Hass avocado is about 70 g of flesh, which works out to roughly 110 kcal.
Also known as: avocado pear, butter fruit, alligator pear, hass avocado
