Buy coconut oil online?

[chocchillimango]

the one at woolies and coles is the Melrose brand.

not the best if you are looking for a decent coconut oil.

Hmmm I just had another look. The one I got is labelled as made by spiral foods and coming from Sri Lanka. It also seems to have a slightly different melting temperature then the banabam.

I can't recall the cost but I don't think it wasn't vastly different from the stuff I had previously bought.

CCM - are we using coconut oil for taste or for the health benefits of cooking with coconut oil over other oils? If the latter, is there a problem with the Woolworths coconut oil?

You can get a ltr in Indian food stores for 6 bucks. Plus cheap almond meal which is $10 a kilo.

it's good if you like the flavour! I didn't like the smell and flavour of the spiral one.

Much prefer Banaban or Nui or Loving Earth (latter is expensive though).

I usually get Banaban but frankly I use saturated fats sparingly in cooking anyway and I'm not buying into eating the oil by the tablespoon.
it's all good but i think moderation is the key ...

of course this argument does not apply to chocolate

Sorry been overseas. Uhh on Kingston Rd across from the skate park near the argonaut.

Edit. It's on the corner or Kingston and reserve rd. In other areas look for Indian/Pacific Island grocers.

Bummer that's a bit of a hike for me. But worth the trek if I get a decent amount.

Excellent though. Thankyou.

Where in bris are you located. Just past westfield garden city on Logan road there's an Indian store that may have it. On Logan road heading towards the city.
