I can't help, only sympathise..... I struggle to get it in, too. I put it

in my chicken broth - once. Never again. I want to taste my broth, not CO.

I made the CO bark and had that with lunch today, just to get more CO in me.

It was OK.

I mixed equal parts butter & CO with cinnamon and a bit of salt and stevia.

Then refrigerate it. Really cuts the smell/taste of the CO, IMO.

I'd bought the refined, thinking I'd read here it was a good substitute if

you didn't like the taste of unrefined, only to read over and over that CO

must be unrefined. :-((

Good luck.

I'm a bit confused about the different coconut oils too, and would

appreciate some assistance.

I keep reading that we need to consume unrefined coconut oil. It appears

that at the link provided in an earlier message, all the different

varieties, refined and not, are listed under each company. I recall reading

on this email group that Tropical Traditions expeller pressed CO is allowed

on Bee's program, but it's listed as refined in the descriptions at the

link. Hence my confusion.

That's the oil I've had on hand, and have been using. I really hope it's

one of the allowed CO's as I'm one of those that can't stand the taste of

the coconutty oils. If it's NOT one of the approved types, can someone

point out a less coconutty oil that is approved?

" Coconut oils are available that don't have any flavor too, so you might

try to get one of them instead - see this Survey on coconut oil which talks

about those without flavor in them: http://www.healingn

Doing the raw egg drink is a good way to get a couple of tablespoons of CO first

thing in the day. I don't worry about cooking with it so much anymore. I'm

actually eating it for dessert now with freshly ground cinnamon and a dash of

stevia sprinkled over it. Another member of this group does the same thing, and

adds nuts to it. It handles that old desire to have something sweet after a

meal. It must be the combo of cinnamon (sweet), nuts (crunch), and fat

(decadence). Try it...at least once. You might find yourself liking it. When

coconut oil becomes a treat, that is quite an accomplishment!

+++Hi ,

Here's all you need to know about coconut oil, and why you only buy unrefined,

and not refined:

Hi ,

I feel the same about coconut oil taste, so I buy the expeller processed CO from

Tropical Traditions with NO flavor to it. However, when I did have the regular

coconut oil, I found that using it to cook some onions and garlic and/or some

curry powder really helped with the taste. I'm going to use the last of my

regular coconut oil to make soap!

Bon Appetit,

Vicki
