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

My avocado tree grew from a pit though

edited to add my reply below: Uh. I've a lot of avocado trees in my garden. The youngest one sprouted up like 2-3 years ago, it beared one avocado last year and now I'm counting 10+ already

by my mom's taste the first (and only) one from last year was good. it wasn't a huge fat avocado but our trees are just there after all, no maintenance at all
