Food Huggers Avocado Huggers 2pc Silicone Reusable Avocado Savers with Pit Storage | BPA Free, Dishwasher Safe Holder | Large & Small Set

Love these avocado huggers! This package comes with 2 different sizes which fits various small, medium, and large avocados from Safeway, Whole Foods, and Costco. I previously purchased a different brand of silicone covers; however, my husband disliked them, and found they would squish the avocado or other fruit or vegetable. I returned them and purchased the huggers instead. We have used them for some time now and they are definitely a keeper.They are easy to clean with a brush or rubbing a dishcloth along the inside of the rim; I do not recommend using a sponge to clean; Dishwasher OK. Design is great and durability appears as though it will outlast any previously purchased and returned silicone version, making it a much better value for the money.

Very good quality…works well!

Like most people, I often (i.e. always) eat half an avocado and save the second half for later. I used to use a piece of plastic wrap, carefully smashed around the seed and the flat part of the avocado, where it would instantly shift, loosen, or whatever, at the slightest bump. Most other methods I could think of would require removing the seed, which guarantees more brown area. As a person who tries to minimize my use of plastic, I hated that I couldn't find a better solution, so this intrigued me. It does work reasonably well, even when the avocado isn't a perfect fit (which is most of the time). There are so many sizes of avocados, it would be great if this came in three sizes, the very small Haas, the larger Haas or that new variety I've been getting lately that looks like a small Florida avocado, and the large Florida avocado. I'd say this is sized for somewhere between the mid-size and the large Florida avocado. When I say this works pretty well, I mean my avocado stays fresh as long as it did in the plastic wrap even though the seal is NOT airtight in any way. It sits on the surface of the cut part, which protects it from oxygen as long as you gently place it in the fridge resting on the silicone.

If your using a half of a avocado, this product works well. BUT if you use more than half, with a quarter of the avocado left, the product does not work. It does not fit to cover. So I still have to use a piece of aluminum foil.

The larger size was too large and the smaller size did not fit smug. It left spaces so air could get in and darken the avacado

I purchased this because I make keto meal replacement shakes, and the recipe only requires half of an avocado. Not to mention I eat a lot of avocado halves as sides, but I usually end up having to toss the uneaten half. Anyone who knows avocados knows the moment you cut an avocado, it seems like you've got minutes to get it eaten before it goes bad. Okay, that's a bit of an exaggeration, but you avocado lovers know what I mean. The only thing I can think of that goes bad nearly as quickly as avocados are bananas, so at best I was hoping to maybe buy my avocado half about 24 hours in the refrigerator, and even then I still expected to have the taste already be a bit off. I must say, I've been pleasantly surprised that I peel this thing off the avocado half the next day, and it's still perfectly tasty. HOWEVER, the last time I used this thing was about five days ago, and I forgot that I had it in the refrigerator with half an avocado in it. Oh no! I just knew I was going to find a gross rotting avocado half that I'd have to throw out, so I decided document just how rottedit would be after five days. WOW! Just look at that picture. That's after being in my refrigerator for five solid days. Now, I will admit this wasn't a perfectly soft ripe avocado when I put it in there. It was most certainly ripe enough to eat sliced up, or just spooned right out of the skin, but just not soft enough that you'd be mashing it up for guacamole. Had it been guacamole soft, I doubt it would look quite this good, but no doubt it would have still lasted a couple of days in the fridge. But WOW! To get five whole days out of a half an avocado and it still be perfectly tasty... that's pretty amazing. Plus it's made of silicone, so it's very easy to clean, and dishwasher safe, if you happen swing that way. The ONLY downside to this little wonder is it can be a tad tricky to get seated properly on to an avocado half; especially if the avocado is fully ripe and soft. However, with a bit of practice it does gets easier once you get your technique down. I'd highly recommend this for anyone who enjoys avocados on the regular.

Great idea. Sadly DOES NOT WORK because there are so many sizes of avocados. I've tried every option I could think of and it simply does not keep out air...thus, browning. Is it better than no cover at all? Probably. BUT, an airtight cover over the exposed flesh and pit (or pit hole) are NECESSARY to keep out significant browning for more than a few hours. THIS does not meet that need. I'm back to plastic wrap AND a bowl with a TIGHT LID. Even that's not perfect, but it beats this waste of money. That said, it is a neat looking gadget and I'd be willing to try the citrus huggers.

It works great! It’s simple to use, keeps the avocado green, and is easy to wash. What else can you ask for?
