Traditional Label Coconut Oil is made the “old fashioned” way in the Phillipines and studies show that making coconut oil this way creates more antioxidants!
New-research-highlights-high-antioxidant-activity-of-traditionally-made-coconut-oil! Today I fried corn torillas in Tropical Traditions coconut oil to soften them and rolled a dollop of cream chesse inside! Yummy treat for the grand-daughter visiting! She’s 7 and this is one of her favorite treats!

“Will cooking with Coconut Oil cause it to become hydrogenated and toxic like hydrogenated oils?
No. Hydrogenation is an industrial process where hydrogen molecules are introduced to the oil to make it solid at room temperatures. It chemically alters the oil and creates harmful trans fatty acids. Cooking with coconut oil does NOT introduce hydrogen into the oil or hydrogenate it. Coconut oil is a very stable oil even at higher temperatures. However, it is best not to cook beyond the smoke point of coconut oil, as this will begin to deteriorate the oil and turn it yellow. Once it has turned dark yellow, the oil should be discarded and no longer used. The smoke point of coconut oil can be increased by combining it with Palm Shortening or Virgin Palm Oil. Both of these oils have a much higher smoke point, and are suitable for high heat, such as deep frying. “
I’d like to try their coconut oil deodorant.
Coconut flour.

I love the high anti ox. properties of the coconut oil.. I use it for everything! Baking, cooking, after a shower, as lip balm…even on my daughter’s hair for her split ends..
Tropical traditions was the first company to export coconut oil from the philippins in 2001 to the United States.
I liked that they carry coconut flour, which I have had before in muffins and really liked.
The coconut oil for hair contains more protein than the regular.
