Customer Reviews

Vile1
As a frequent NOW customer, I was surprised at the poor quality of their coconut oil. It was yellow, cloudy, and smelled so rancid that I didn't dare eat it. NOW usually sells good products, so maybe I just got a rare bad batch of coconut oil - who knows? I think I'll stick with Nutiva organic VCO, which has never disappointed me.

Off Taste2
As the other reviewer mentioned, it does have more of a coconut smell than the other 2 I bought, but it has an off taste to it that the others do not. Reading about coconut oils, someone mentioned the gag factor. I had no idea what they were referring to until I tasted this. NOW's a good name, but they fell short here. You'd be better off with Jarrow or Nutiva, similar price, better taste...

tasty and great - but the container leaks3
I like this coconut oil, it does have a bit of the coconut smell which I like but I know many don't. It's cheaper than many of the others, but I personally prefer the Nutiva (a bit more coconut-ty without being overpowering when you cook with it). I use this for EVERYTHING - even taking off my makeup and deep conditioning my hair. The biggest problem I have with it is that when I got it, the outside was covered in the oil and any time the container falls over it leaks. Other than that, great and it's hard to beat the price.
