THAI coconuts?!?!

[Guest guest]

Baby coconuts (not mature enough to be able to sprout) are very fragile and

die rather quickly. Mature coconuts have reached a state by natural design

that when they are ready to fall from the tree, the gigantic seed pod can

spend several months in a suspended state on the ground or floating across

the ocean ready for the right conditions for sprouting.

 

The baby coconuts, because of their fragile state and interrupted life

cycle, spoil and die very quickly. They are not designed to be detached from

the tree at that stage of their life cycle and be viable.

 

At the Institute, as we prepared for our seasonal opening in October,

someone bought a truckload of baby coconuts. We delayed our opening by two

weeks and one of the major casualties of this decision is that we lost over

90% (about 400) of our baby coconuts to spoilage.

 

In general, I personally do not use baby coconuts more than one week off the

tree, otherwise they taste dead to me. Even when they are put in cold

storage I can taste the difference. When I am in the states I have bought

Thai cocos and they taste dead and horribly chemical to me, even the organic

ones from the Organic Food supermarkets.

 

First of all, let me tell you from experience with cutting and using

hundreds to thousands of normal cocos myself (I have ten coco trees on my

farm), that those skinned yellow husks do NOT stay yellow for weeks without

preservatives. The yellow husk on cocos in the stores IS NOT NATURAL, no

matter how well refrigerated and packaged. You have to ask yourself, how are

they kept like that? Just like you should ask yourself, why does a McDonalds

or airline salad never get brown even around the edges?

 

A baby coco fresh from the tree has a sweet intoxicating nectar that screams

life and vitality. If you have not tasted that, you will not how bad the

store ones compare. I am telling you, if you are not getting baby cocos less

than a week from the tree, you are in trouble.

 

If you are unable to get the TRULY FRESH baby cocos shipped to you or you do

not live in the tropics and you still want to get the amazing power of the

coconut; do what we do with other seeds: SPROUT MATURE COCONUTS! It takes a

really long time, but it is so worth it. The " water " area fills with a

delicious sweet coconut cake. The area (on the inside) around where the

sprout tail comes out forms a torus of amazing pure coconut oil, that is

unlike any other live coconut oil that you have ever used. In the " Living

Foods Lifestyle " we only use fresh cut baby coconut water and meat, or

sprouted coconut cake and oil, which is abundantly alive with tangible

energy and vitality!

 

Fresh baby coconuts can be 2nd day aired from Puerto Rico (US territory) or

Hawaii. Why waste natural resources shipping coconuts over a couple of

months by cargo container from Thailand for food that will be DOA (dead on

arrival)?

 

Hope my experience helps.

 

All the best,

Tom
