Is that edible?

After class today there was a book fair in the Hudson auditorium that I volunteered to help work at. While walking around straightening up books, I saw a cookbook and thought to myself, "hmmmm I really want to start cooking more often, Aquinas food isn't always that good." So I bought the book and haggled one of my friends to drive me to our local Price Chopper. I had picked out a recipe during the car ride there and decided I was going to make a seafood avocado salad. Bad decision in hindsight, my advice to anyone reading this, if you have no experience in preparing seafood then get someone who does and watch them first. So I get all of the ingredients and I bring them back to school. I had already cut up the seafood and I was moving on to the avocado. I was REALLY surprised when I tried to cut through it that the knife wouldn't go all the way through. I was perplexed because I didn't think that avocados had a seed, well boy was I wrong. This is a picture of the seed from the avocado:

It was gigantic! I was thoroughly impressed with it. It was bigger than a golf ball, closer to the size of a lacrosse ball really. Oh and if people were wondering, the salad was horrible. So no, it was not edible.  :(
