Don't know if it's worth mentioning but if an avocado is hard when I wake up, and I know I'm trying to make Mexican food that night, I just shoot it in a paper bag with whatever fruit I've got laying by and it usually does seem to help. Or it's all in my head. People claim bananas and apples work best. I usually keep a bag of apples around if i can, so I use that.
It's some horseshit about trapping gases in the bag, but letting oxygen flow through... Idk
Yeah, I've been told the paper bag helps that it still gets some oxygen, making it "ripen" more and rot less
