'fruit' is the definition.
(avocado is a kind of fruit)

'virginia rejected online supermarket' is the wordplay.
'virginia' becomes 'va' (US state abbreviation).
'rejected' is a reversal indicator.
'online supermarket' becomes 'ocado' (I am not sure about the 'online' bit.**).
'va' in reverse letter order is 'av'.
'av'+'ocado'='AVOCADO'
