@evan fresh is best, but dessicated is okay too.

But seriously, there's nothing quite like fresh coconut.

@evan

I like it in sweet or neutral foods. In yogurt, chocolate, ice cream, fruit & nut mixes...

I don't care for it in savory 'entree' type foods. It's fine, and I'll eat it like that if it's served to me, but I won't get it on my own accord.

@evan never liked it much, and like it a lot less after learning how high in unhealthy fats it is, and how damaging palm agriculture is.

@evan yes, but not dried shredded coconut.

@evan as food and as a perfume!

@evan I know it only in aroma of yoghurts... and I don't like it...

@evan Yes, but eating it more or less fresh is a lot of work.

@evan Yes, but they don't grow in or near the Netherlands so a coconut is a rare sight around here :P

I do sometimes buy coconut yoghurt though, good stuff!
