About
Avocado oil is an edible fruit oil that weighs slightly less than water for any given volume.
With a density of about 7.6 pounds per gallon (0.915 grams per milliliter), avocado oil floats when poured into water. Its weight-to-volume ratio is nearly identical to other culinary fats like olive oil and canola oil. Because of this density, a full liquid pint of the oil weighs roughly 0.95 pounds (433 grams) rather than a full pound.
From Wikipedia
Avocado oil is an edible oil extracted from the pulp of avocados, the fruit of Persea americana. It is used as an edible oil both raw and for cooking, where it is noted for its high smoke point.
