Reed avocados are a medium to large, round to oval-shaped variety with a tough, leathery green skin. The creamy, buttery texture and dense, firm flesh underneath is perfect for serving sizes up to 32 oz. and is much less oily than most other varieties. Reed avocados are ideal as a serving vessel, and their large round seed provides an extra crunch.
