  Speaker 2: My mouth and I can't spin it out.

  Speaker 1: To worry about It's one way to do it.
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're delicious.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: The other way is to look and see where the
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: seed is. Yeah. Yeah, it's not like it's a pumpkin seed.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: And it's not like they move and like fly into

• 18:23
  Speaker 1: weird calling them a seed, doesn't it. Yeah, they're just
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: they're huge. When I say avocado seed, I'm like that

• 18:38
  Speaker 1: of saying it.
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're like, I'll eat it all day, but don't
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: make me say it.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: I contend to do it. That it is rational, completely
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: rational to fill the weird calling that a seed. Watch
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: just just be talking about it, and it's it's not
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: a seed, it's actually adroop. So actually, I don't know
• 19:00

• 19:03
  Speaker 2: It's a pit, all right, fear avoided.
• 19:08
