Avocadoes are called "pears" in paradise. They also look slightly differnt from those avocadoes that I was familiar with elsewhere - the outer skin of a "pear" has a lighter green colour and is much more smooth than that of the avocado that I knew - thus initially, I did not think that they were avocadoes (though I did not think that they were pears that I knew either). But once you open one, you will see that it is in fact an avocado. 
Avocadoes are in season right now in paradise. I purchased one that felt perfectly ripe (53JMD, about US$.75, at the Loshusan supermarket in Barbican), put it on a toasted multi-grain bun with cream cheese, sprinkled on top a bit of lime and a pinch of fleur de sel brought from France, and there we go, my breakfast this morning.
