Tropical Traditions is America’s source for coconut oil. Their Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil is hand crafted in small batches by family producers, and it is the highest quality coconut oil they offer. You can read more about how virgin coconut oil is different from other coconut oils on their website: What is Virgin Coconut Oil?
If you ever get on Pinterest, you have to check out the
Tropical Traditions Pinterest page! I like this board best, the
Coconut DIY Board. I was one of the reluctant ones when Pnterest first started, but now I'm all aboard If you want to follow me on Pinterest, I follow everybody back, and my Pinterest is the same as my Twitter, Facebook, Blog and LinkedIn profile urls. You will find me on just about any site as "1caseycolette" (there can only be one!) Actually, there isn't. There is also a woman by the name of Colette Casey on Facebook I found.. freaky. I wonder if she's my mirror image opposite doppelganger.
Moving on to other more important things, such as:
Why do you want to win this coconut oil??
Well, for numerous reasons. This coconut oil is minimally processed and GOLD LABEL. It is very high quality, and tastes quite good in most
any recipes. I like to add it into my smoothies. I buy a bag of frozen fruit (whatever your preference, but I most like mango, strawberry peach blend.) I will add a few spoonfuls of yogurt, a little juice/water/milk, again- your preference, your palette. And of course, a spoon (or two) of this Tropical Traditions Coconut Oil.
I love Tropical Tradition's fast delivery & the many ongoing sales of their products which gives the consumers a chance to try them & save more. I highly recommend Tropical Tradition's products, especially their coconut oil & the company itself as a whole. I will be a fan for life and looking forward to try the rest of its healthy products!
This isn't a food/recipe blog, and I don't really follow directions anyway.. I'm a rule breaker. It's more of a judge by your eye and belly type thing. I kinda tend to just throw all the stuff together and it's always really tasty. I can adjust it for flavor after the first initial trial. You'd think the food/dish would turn out questionable, but not to brag, but I must have a flair for cooking, since it's always REALLY good. Then again, I am not extremely picky anyway. I just likes me some food! I have found that stirring in a spoon of Matcha green tea powder also makes the fruit and coconut oil smoothie taste even better. Matcha tea is good for you, same as coconuts are!
I also do like to stir in coconut oil or use it in place of vegetable canola/olive oil in the kitchen but keep in mind, it does add a coconut flavor to the dish. It has a strong taste, but if you like coconuts as much as I do, it shouldn't bother you.
I keep meaning to try it with coconut shrimp. Man, oh man- shrimp and coconuts together? I'll be in heaven. Extra COCONUTTY shrimp. YUM!~
If you aren't like me, and you follow recipes and directions to a T, you are probably sorely disappointed by my "recipe" above. Again, sorry- not sorry!

How to Use Coconut oil: There are hundreds of uses for coconut oil!
Tropical Traditions also carries other varieties of affordable high quality coconut oil. Visit their website to check on current sales, to learn about the many uses of coconut oil, and to read about all the advantages of buying coconut oil online. Since the FDA does not want us to discuss the health benefits of coconut oil on a page where it is being sold or given away, here is the best website to read about the health benefits of coconut oil.
I was excited to see this on the sidebar of their homepage:
