Vita Coco

[Shimpie]

I love coconut juice. It's the product of my Thai peeps

Young coconut juice/water has no fat what so ever. Here's a link to the nutritional facts. http://www.wildernessfamilynaturals....onut_water.htm

Now when you start carving into the white meat, that's you will find fat. Doesn't matter if it's a young coconut or a mature one, all the fats are within the white coconut flesh. Asians use coconut milk like a Europeans use sour cream and cheese...to add the rich flavor of fat.

If you think about it, a coconut is a big nut, just like a walnut or a macadamia. It's a super nutritious seed that is the start of new plant. Therefore, it's going to have all the similar fats of nuts. However, coconut meat is whole lot higher in saturated fat than other nuts.

Tip: if you can't find the fresh coconuts, you can find them packaged in the freezer section of an asian store.
