Very Efficient: Organic Virgin Coconut Oil

Virgin coconut oil is one of the healthiest foods out there, and it’s also a great cooking oil. A company based in the Philippines called Tropical Traditions produces an organic virgin coconut oil. It can be purchased online from Tropical Traditions or PureSweeteners. This coconut oil is unrefined — fresh coconut meat is shredded (wet milled), and then cold-pressed to make coconut milk.

The milk is then fermented for 24-36 hours, and the oil is then separated and filtered from the curds. No chemical or high-heat treatment is used, and this oil contains no trans-fatty acids.

The company says:

This coconut oil is made on Mt. Banahaw from organic coconuts. Coconuts are used fresh (within 24 hours of harvest) from small family farms on Mt. Banahaw and other rural places in Quezon Province, the coconut capital of the Philippines. Our coconut trees and family producers are certified organic according to strict USDA standards.

Here is a FAQ on their virgin coconut oil.

Wilderness Family Naturals also offers virgin coconut oil, including a “Centrifuge Extracted” oil.
