There's been a lot of discussion about coconut oil lately.... I'm

assuming this is different from the coconut oil used to pop movie

theater popcorn, right?

Hi Mindy,

 

Yes and no.

 

Most low cost coconut oil is based on that made from dried copra and highly

processed. It's called RBD CO which means

Refined, Beached and Deodorized. While it still has a high Lauric fatty acid

content, it has lost a lot of the other

goodies the low tech produced VCNO has.

 

Desiccated coconut is one alternative. A good US source is:

The 1 gallon size is the best buy as the price per pint is Us$6.25. VCNO has

about a 3 - 5 year shelf life and does not

require refrigeration as there are only small amount of mono and poly fatty

acids which will slowly go rancid. The Vit

E in the VCNO helps to protest these double bond fatty acids from peroxidation /

attack by free radicals.
