No One Can Tell If This Avocado Has A Seed In It Or Not

Almost five years ago to the day, an optical illusion caused by a dress tore apart the world. The piece of clothing made people across the globe to question how they see colors, since many were certain the dress was black and blue, while others were sure that it was white and gold. Now, a new viral sensation is spreading and this one involves an avocado.

The photo, which originated in a Facebook group, shows half of the delicious fruit, but no one can tell if the seed is in it or not. Typically, it is something that is simple to discern, but take a look at the pic and you'll see it could go either way.

The original poster wrote with the pic, "Looks like a seed on first glance but definitely no seed on second look. I thought no seed but now that I've seen it, I can't unsee it." Others commented on how it was causing them problems, writing things like, "Omg my brain," "Oh my gosh this is doing my head in," and "This is making me want to throw my phone at the wall! I cannot decide."

Many people who saw the pic felt there was a seed, but just as many felt there wasn't, and of course, there were plenty of folks who saw it both ways, with one saying, "So no seed, I can see avocado to the right that's been damaged from seed removal and has ended up inside the hole. Also the shadow on the bottom would indicate no seed as it goes in," but then adding, "I can see the seed too. The avocado stuck to the side of the seed on the right hand side. Also a touch of green on the bottom of the seed which wouldn't be there if there was no seed, because it would be a yellow flesh still."

Unfortunately, the original poster didn't say if there was a seed or not so this mystery might go unanswered.
