‘Holy guacamole!! Saw this hack and I finally got to “avo-go” to see if it works,’ she captioned the video.

‘I saw this on TikTok about a month ago, and I haven’t tried it out yet – so let’s give this a go,’ she said, urging fans to avoid using a knife and ‘losing a finger or thumb or multiple.’

She moved her fingers into the formation of a V, and placed them under the seed while cupping the back of the avocado with her thumb.

After applying a touch of pressure, the seed simply popped out into the bowl in front of her – and even Belinda was surprised with the rapid results.

She stared at the camera in disbelief, before making a ‘mind blown’ gesture with her hands.
