Zoodles Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 What on earth is this stuff? Saw it in my health food shop yesterday but the assistant didn't seem to know what it was either. http://www.naturepac...nut-crunch.html Has anyone bought or used this stuff? How is it different to dessicated coconut? Whaaatt iiisss iiit?? I'm intrigued, it looks a bit like nut meal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moluv Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Says on the website it's a by- product of their virgin coconut oil production. To me that means someone got a raise and a bonus for figuring out a way to market what used to go to the compost. Post back if it's awesome though, inquiring minds want to know!

Lol yep that's what I thought, maybe if I mix it with coconut oil I can make a coconut materialise! Looks like I'm off to buy some tomorrow, purely out of curiosity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonec Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 hmmm...now i'm curious. my kids were big time cereal fans and i've been giving them bowls of coconut, nuts and fruit for breakfast a couple days a week (they tell me it's the best cereal ever...hehe), i bet this stuff would work well with those.

Zoodles Posted February 28, 2013 Author Share Posted February 28, 2013 Sooo it tastes like horse food (not horse meat). It's the bran of the coconut world, in fact, it could possibly be ground up coconut husks. Highly not recommended! Looks like I'm going to be hiding it in meatloaf for the next 3 years....

MattieRoss Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Zoodles, if it is indeed coconut husks that might be good steeped as a tea. In Brazil they have a tea made up of mostly coconut husk and it is consumed for health benefits as it is anti-inflammatory. Drinking the tea helps relieve the pain. I'll try to look up the info as I was just reading about it last night. Tracy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracy Haha Tracy I don't think it's really coconut husks, it just tastes like it, but I've got to get rid of a big bag of it so maybe hiding in tea would work lol!
