Guest guest Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 I buy my shredded coconut from Wilderness Family Naturals in Northern Minnesota. I wonder if they ship to Canada? They have the best dessicated coconut chips and freeze dried coconut that I have ever tasted. A large 2.5 pound bag of unsweetened dried coconut is around 7 bucks. www.wildernessfamilynaturals.com -------------- Original message -------------- There is one local store I shop at that has raw bulk foods. It's where I get my buckwheat flour, millet, quinoa, etc. They have shredded coconut with NOTHING added. It's great! Try to find a store that sells bulk foods in your area and see if they have shredded coconut.

Guest guest Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 Hi Irene, I'm certainly no expert, but I DO buy and use shredded coconut. Since I buy mine in smaller quanties, I just put it in the freezer. Perhaps you could do that with yours by putting it in smaller bags. Blessings, Sunny From: Irene Francisco <meandmy2cats@...> Subject: Shredded coconut Coconut Oil Date: Saturday, July 4, 2009, 7:20 AM I just bought a large bag 5 lbs of shredded coconut as I have found that it keeps me normal intestinally and solves an ongoing problem but there is nothing on the bag that tells me how to keep it, should I freeze it or will it keep OK in the bottom drawer of the frig? Help does anyone know. Irene - meandmy2cats@ gmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 I'm using the values for dessicated coconut (not sweetened) from the USDA Food Search database, version SR21. The online version is at http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/ and the downloadable database program is at http://www.ars.usda.gov/Services/docs.htm?docid=5720.

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Thanks. 100 gram portion has far too many carbs for me, but I suspect one would never eat anywhere near 100 grams in a day. How many grams do you eat in a day? Carbohydrate, by difference 23.65g Fiber, total dietary 16.3g Sugars, total 7.35g Alobar On Mon, Jul 20, 2009 at 10:01 AM, Ed T<eterrys@...> wrote: > I'm using the values for dessicated coconut (not sweetened) from the USDA Food Search database, version SR21.

Guest guest Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 I usually eat about 50g dessicated coconut a day, spread out over the course of an 8 hr period which is less than 4 grams of sugar. I keep my carbs to about 70g a day for maintenance. > I'm using the values for dessicated coconut (not sweetened) from the USDA Food Search database, version SR21.
