Coconut oil is a yeast-fighter. This has a coconutty taste. We use this when baking desserts or for oiling the griddle when making pancakes. I also use this as a body lotion on the whole family's dry skin ... makes my kids smell like cookies! Yummmm! This is solid but turns liquid when warm.

Customer Reviews

Great for cooking & moisturizing!
Although I like Jarrow's unrefined coconut oil best for eating by the spoonful (I take 2tbs/day), I find Spectrum's consistency better for cooking and using as a hair and body moisturizer. Also, it's great that it doesn't require refrigeration. Jarrow's does.

I've used coconut oil for about two months now and love the flavor (esp with chicken & vegetables). It's also AMAZING used topically. I use it after bathing and also as a facial moisturizer before bed. In the short time that I've used it, it's made such a huge difference as a moisturizer (much better than the various expensive store-bought products I've used for years). I haven't felt increased energy with it yet, but then again I juice daily so maybe the energizing benefits are disguised. =]

This one stands up to the others, but...
I've tried several brands of coconut oil, but this started out to be the best by far. It is creamy and less nutty tasting than the others, and was easier for me to consume than the others (I eat it right out of the jar). However, it caused me to have tickle in my throat...an annoying tickle that took an hour to go away. Granted, a coconut is a coconut is a coconut, and I know that other factors might play into the flavor of any of them. And granted, the next jar of Spectrum I buy might not have the same effect as the first, but for now, I'm rating this one in the mid range as far as how I like it, and that is simply because of that throat tickle thing. It's very annoying and distracting. Otherwise, initially, it has a smooth, creamy, fresh taste and I really do enjoy that part.
