While you can select a good avocado by giving it a squeeze, it's a very rude way to go about it. You'll bruise it and leave someone else with a damaged fruit once the avocado's ripe enough to use.

The best way to test the ripeness is to instead press down on the little nub where the stem was. It'll still bruise the fruit, but it'll limit the damage to one known and smaller spot.

Please please please show courtesy when selecting your avocados!
