Guacamole and avocado toast lovers, you're in for a treat.

A family in Hawaii has claimed the title of world's heaviest avocado, with their fruit weighing in at a whopping 5.6 pounds.

That's about 18 times heavier than the weight of a typical avocado, which weighs a little more than 5 ounces.

The Pokini family from the island of Maui told the Maui News that they received their Guinness World Records certificate validating the achievement this week after they applied in December.

"We were excited," Juliane Pokini told the newspaper Wednesday. "But at the same time, we were, like, finally. It was such a long wait."

The family's accomplishment was recently verified and recorded in the Guinness World Records database, spokesperson Rachel Gluck confirmed to USA TODAY.

"When the Pokini’s avocado tree started unexpectedly producing large fruit, they decided to attempt the Guinness World Records title to show everyone that Hawaii produces amazing avocados," the Guinness World Records entry online says.

Pokini told the newspaper that the family first submitted their application in early 2018, but found that they needed more documentation to prove their avocado was really the heaviest.

So they waited until their 10-year-old, 20-foot-tall tree produced another massive avocado and this time got the correct proof.

"This avo was about the size of my 12-year-old son’s head," Pokini told Hawaii News Now.

With their super avocado, Pokini said the family made guacamole.

"We cut it open and made a whole bunch of guacamole, sharing with family and friends," she told the Maui News. "It fed a lot of people. We even gave some away."

The family is already watching their tree for another big avocado this year.
