JG: I use coconut oil on my skin and also a little for cooking. I’ve tried other brands and been satisfied but somewhat disappointed. The few I tried had a weird smell to the oil - not bad or unpleasant but just weird. They also had pockets of imperfections, so while they were mostly smooth, there was often a gritty texture. That’s fine for cooking because it melts away to nothing anyway, but on my hands it makes it not smooth.

This oil is different! I just got it today and I am here already to leave this review. The texture is SMOOTH, and I cannot emphasize that enough. So far I’ve felt nothing gritty at all, and it is so smooth in my hands.

The smell is AMAZING. It has that delicious and sweet coconut smell that you probably love if you’re shopping for coconut oil. I was actually caught off guard by the smell because I had gotten used to the strange odorless smell of other brands I had been using.

I haven’t cooked with it yet, but I did taste it. The coconut flavor is subtle and the texture is super smooth and melts so fast, as expected from before. You don’t want the oil to have a strong taste when cooking so it doesn’t overpower your dish. I can...

MIKALA RATED: First time trying Healthy Origins Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil. Very pleased: color, texture, taste and smell all good indicators of a quality oil. Light coconut smell and taste; don't confuse with that of a suntan oil smell. While nice, you really don't want to smell like a constant sun bathing tourist when using for moisturizing or in DIY beauty products. I don't use coconut oil for cooking purposes so can't comment on the taste appropriateness individual persons look for. I do take a tablespoon daily and sometimes put it over hot rice, and pleased with this manufacturer's oil. Extra virgin refers to the number of times pressed or low steamed during its processing, less is best. Coconut oil of this nature is affected by climate conditions so store in a cool area. IF it does turn to a liquid due to heat, it will again solidify taking anywhere from 2-3 days when a jar of this quantity. It doesn't affect the quality of the oil, and a natural coconut sediment will be visually noticeable. It will smooth evenly when applying to skin or blend smoothly into other products. If heating at low temp in warm or hot water, it will turn to the clear oil desired. This is a fantastic oil and...

Vlad: The product is pretty fragrant, smells like coconut. I cooked up a pepper stir fry with eggs and it had a nice coconut taste that welcomed in the dish.

There are some debates about whether or not coconut is the best oil to use, or the worst, or whether to use any oil at all.
I saw several pubmed studies that made clear the benefits of using coconut oil. This kind of cold pressed and minimally processed, and doesn't have polyunsaturated fats that like in Canola oil that are pretty controversial. Coconut has the benefit of being a food very low in pesticides, and they aren't genetically modified, unlike a lot of plants that create the common cooking oil. Organic grass-fed cow butter would be your alternative, but that's expensive, probably should be refrigerated, you can't get it as easily online (might have to be cooled.) Consider that other butters or even just "organic" butters won't be quite optimal, though butter is delicious. Coconut is a cherished fruit for me, as a college student who can't afford a ton to eat. It's filling and high and fat, and pure creamed coconut can be cheaply bought, stored, and made into fresh coconut milk for milkshakes at more...
