No I live in Santa Monica. I go to WholeFoods for the coconut oil. The car wanted the organic one. Lol
You just gave me a new idea. Sell coconut oil to auto part stores, put it in their car wax section!

Yes the price has gone up. Yesterday you replied to my post. I had to go read one of your threads so I could give you the 1200 star. Nice job. I also cook with coconut oil. I use it instead of butter or the non stick spray. Great with eggs

Thanks my friend, omelettes especially.

Here is a recipe that might give you the wax benefits as well as keep your coconut oil:

20g Carnauba flakes
5g Beeswax
50ml Coconut Oil


Firstly, melt the carnauba flakes and beeswax granules in the small glass jar (within a saucepan of boiling water), or double boiler. The beeswax will melt far more quickly than the carnauba, which turns to an amber liquid. When completely molten, stir in the coconut oil, and reheat whilst stirring until the mixture is completely liquid again. Remove the glass jar from the saucepan and allow to cool gradually and naturally for two hours, or even better, overnight. A hard wax will be left behind

I guess there has to be "the first one" (like, "Hey! I wonder what THAT tastes like?" Points at a frog).

It is great to cook your popcorn too! If one were to cook popcorn on the stove top that is...

Yes I love coconut butter.

*were you shaving your legs with it and working out? Let me know how that goes lol
I like your silly glasses!

a reply to: Quantum12

I hear that stuff is pricey! I make my own, made an orange variation that was to die for!

I have used the oil to shave with, and it gives the smoothest finish of anything I've ever used! But it also gunks up the razor and leaves a nasty film on the tub. You win some, you lose some!

I like my silly glasses too, but I rarely wear them anymore.
