Just a quick blog tonight...if you saw my blog on gluten free foods you know that my latest favorite cooking oil is coconut oil. Not only is it super food, but using other oils during the cooking process can actually create trans fats....gross! I'm not going to go into too much detail because I'm still trying to get paperwork done for my real job (I've already been at it two hours) and I just needed a quick way to procrastinate :) The last article is very science-y but good for those of you who want to understand why coconut oil, and especially virgin coconut oil, is one of the best things for you to use. It comes with a hefty price tag, but does last a while and a little goes a long way. I encourage you to try it...the Spunky Coconut website has a lot of uses for it! (www.thespunkycoconut.com)
