Guest guest Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 Another recipe I found calls for the juice of 4 brown, mature coconuts. I have not been able to crack a coconut and I was wondering if I could juice the coconut that the HFS sells in chunks. I don't think it has been dried...

Guest guest Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 You can go to youtube and see a vido on how to open a coconut. After that you will see just how easy it is. My first time I ruined a knife and wasted all the water in my coconut. Now (after watching videos), I am a pro. Jeannie your time is the most cherished gift of all, tomorrow is promised to no one.

Guest guest Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 I wish I could find coconuts near me. They have them at the food store, but they look all waxy and weird on the outside.

Guest guest Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 waxy and weird....ewww...that sounds too weird indeed. Do you have a Whole Foods where you live? If not how about an asian market? I've seen two kinds....the brown hairy one and the white one that looks like a top. They say the white ones that look like tops are young coconuts and the brown hairy ones are the older ones.

Guest guest Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 The nearest Whole Foods is a good hour away with traffic. I do go and stock up on nuts and other bulks but I haven't seen any coconuts there. Our Whole Foods has more conventional fruits and veggies than organic so I don't get produce there. I stopped at my local health food store and he said he would order me a few for next week so I'll wait and see what they look like. Anyone know a good place to buy bulk and inexpensive raw nuts?

Guest guest Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 Do you have anything like a Trader Joe's? We don't here, but I have been to the one in Phoenix.

Guest guest Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 Not that I have found. I asked the owner of the health food store I go to and he said he would order some so I'll wait and see if they look any better. I have been getting coconut water from him and it is my new favorite drink!!

Guest guest Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 We don't have a Trader Joe's either. It sounds like I live in the sticks LOL!! At least my local Stop and Shop has started carrying organic produce which is more than I can say for most of the stores in the area.
