 I wouldn't cook with it, but it may have medicinal applications January 4, 2009
I do not understand the people who say that they cook with this product. It has a strong coconut flavor and aroma that would only be good for deserts, if you want that. I tried it in split pea soup that has a pretty strong aroma of its own, and found it quite unworkable. Also, coconut "oil" is one of the most saturated fats in nature, so I'd rather just use butter for most things since it is not nearly as saturated. Yes, it may not contain trans fat, but that's about all that you can say for it.
You cannot "eat it out of the jar" as someone avered because it is so saturated at outside air temperatures that it is rock-hard. It may possibly work for psoriasis or as a hand cream, but remember that your body will smell strongly like coconut if you use it as a salve. I'm pretty skeptical right now, but I have two jars so I am trying some non-culinary things to use it up.
 Great coconut oil December 18, 2008
I like this brand of coconut oil. It is great to cook with and gives a slight coconut flavor to the food or baked good.
Great Product November 9, 2008
This is the only coconut oil I buy! It is a great product and Amazon has a decent price. If you like coconut oil check out coconut flour too! I just learned about coconut flour and I have loved baking with it.
