The problem with avocados is that some of them simply don't soften even when they become ripe. This can be quite annoying, but here's one creative solution. Try pickling your avocados! Pickling them in the fridge for just 2 hours will soften them up immediately. This way, you won't have to throw away the expensive avocados again, even when they don't ripen properly.
