FACT

Avocados are toxic to almost all animals, including cats and dogs.

In 2006, researchers spent eight months studying the reactions of 200 dogs when shown a photograph of the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci.

I hate to argue over semantics buuuuut I think Sir CP is right - they ARE toxic to humans, it's just that you'd have to eat a whole lot of them. Nevertheless I'll take the chalk mark.
