Coconut Oil

Newest - 1/02/09

I used to buy Fresh Shores Coconut Oil from Mercola.com - see

I called several months back and was told by the woman on the phone that only coconut is processed / packaged on the lines for this product.
I'll be honest, I'm not sure that I completely believe her. They didn't seem totally on the ball with allergy info., but I continue to use it because my son tolerates - and also because our list of go to products is so slim that I am afraid to lose one.

But now - based a posting from NoNutz4us, I called Nature's Way - about their Efa Gold
(Nov 2008) - and the rep on the phone said they only process coconut products on lines with the Efa Gold Coconut Oil. So I buy that now - it's about $9 for 16oz at Whole Foods, but if you buy case - they give you 10% off. Yay!

Nature's Way - EfaGold Coconut Oil - Pure Extra Virgin. Very helpful company - they called S. America where they pick and press the coconuts. No other nuts being processed with the nuts. Nature's Way where they bottle the oil also said that there was no chance of cross contamination. Current as of Dec 2007

Thanks so much for information. Do you know if they are free of sesame as well?
We use coconut oil for everything - on our Enjoy Life Bagels, to saute Shitake's, in baking - you name it. I'll give this brand a try.

This is good stuff, man. It'll be an excellent reference. I'd also get some links to other resources like this online.
