Joy Behar hospitalized after avocado accident

Who knew avocados were so dangerous?

On Tuesday’s episode of “The View,” co-host Joy Behar revealed she had to miss work Monday because she’d sliced open her hand cutting an avocado.

“Saturday night, on my way to the event at the retreat, I stabbed myself in the hand with a knife,” she explained. “I was trying to desperately eat something, so I was trying to open an avocado. So I stuck the knife into the pit to get it out … and I stabbed myself!”

At the hospital, where the 75-year-old stayed overnight and was administered an antibacterial drip to ward off infection, Behar was told that this sort of accident happens all the time.

Joy is not to be trusted with a knife anyway. . . .

>Overnight in the hospital on an antibacterial drip? Special care because she is a celebrity?

Would an “Antibacterial Drip” be an intravenous antibiotic? You know. Those things we peasants aren’t supposed to use to save their effectiveness.

Hmmmmmmmmmm...interesting tip; thanks!

I have a great avocado tool ( one end extracts the pit, the other end slices and then removes the slices ), that I bought about 30 years ago; they aren't a new gadget at all and it works very well. And you can get them from many different venues at all price levels. :-)

Cut herself.

Saw the headline and thought the ER was needed to remove the pit out from her tush.

LOL...GMTA! :-)

It was the first thing that came to mind. So she stabbed herself in the hand...BIG WHOOP...that's absolutely NO reason to keep her overnight with a drip in her arm! And frankly, I've never heard of such a thing happening to anyone else.

Joy Behar stabbed herself?

Did they get a patch on her before all the hot air leaked out?

My money was on the bacteria ... but that was before the drip.

For crying out loud.

She buys avocados to eat the pits.

"I stabbed myself in the hand with a knife,” she explained. “I was trying to desperately eat something."

I bet she is really something to see at Golden Corral.

And no one with a mere (or even nasty) cut is going to be hooked up to a drip for 7-8 hours!

If true, the hospital denied a more worthy person a bed for the night.

Cut avocado in half. Cut half again, into quarters.

Skin peels off easily.

Pit also comes off easily WITHOUT ANY TOOLS.

I was wondering if she was practicing slitting her own throat.
