Customer Reviews

Great!
This is my first experience using coconut oil and I'm so glad I tried it. VERY good for sauteeing anything. And I used it instead of butter to make my favorite scones and they were great....I couldn't tell the difference. The only thing that I may hesitate to use it for is fried eggs...can't wrap my head around that, but I will probably try it. I thought it was worth the extra money to get the two smaller jars. I also bought the 56oz big one Amazon offers (can't remember the brand but it was also EV) for $20 and will use it to refill these.

Healthy Coconut Oil
I am very pleased with this product. Coconut oil, from what I have been told, is extremely healthy for you both internally and externally. I use it in my cooking, replacing vegetable oil. And, whenever my children have dry skin or rash, I rub some directly on the spot and it relieves the irritation quickly. I highly recommend it.

High quality coconut oil.
Shipped in good condition. This is a high quality product and the price was reasonable as many of your prices are when you shop Amazon.
