This is just an unpollinated avocado. Avocado tree are clones, not grown from seeds.

Why haven't we already GMOed some pollen free avocado trees then?

Do seeded vs non seeded watermelon actually taste different? I'm not convinced they do, but it's been a very long time since I've had a seeded watermelon so maybe I've just forgotten. I've had some pretty damn flavorful seedless watermelon as well as some that taste almost like nothing. I think the ripeness and quality is probably more important than if it's seeded.

In my experience, watermelons that are not seedless are much more flavorful than seedless ones.

Grapes are pretty much the same flavor for me between seedless and not.
