Coconut is one of the staple food in Asia. A common tree that grows in the wild. And one I grew up consuming and using in so many different forms including oil. It have a tasty yet distinct taste which to my coconut-raised palate, enhances the flavor of certain dishes.

I specially love using coconut oil on my omelette and hash browns and anything that calls for oil. To me, they just taste yummier!

This week, I was privileged to try Tropical Traditions Virgin Coconut oil** in cooking my omelette and hash browns. Though there was not a distinct difference from the organic coconut oil I regularly used, the clean, bold flavor that I love about in coconut oils are very much present in this oil -- which is a good thing.

It means the product is pure and no fillers have been added to manufacture the product. And that this product is worth a try!

On a side note, this product somehow brings a "piece of home" for me. It comes all the way from the Philippines where I was born and raised. And each time someone purchases this product, it is helping support families in the rural areas in that part of the country where these coconut grows! Call me proud.
