Anyone Else Notice People Going Coconuts?
 

I am starting to see ads everywhere for coconut water. I tried some the other day and was not that impressed. Maybe there are good health benefits though? It seems as if this came out of no where as I had never heard of it until a few months ago and now there are ads everywhere. I just saw one on the homepage of my email and a billboard went up on the toll way.

What are your thoughts? Anyone tried the different brands and can say if they differ in taste? The one I had was a light blue packaging in a small screw cap bottle. I forget the name at the moment.

Ah, I found it. It was Zico.

I know straight from the coconut it's supposed to be some of the healthiest stuff on earth, refined and bottled not so sure.

Re: Anyone Else Notice People Going Coconuts?
 

Haha I like the way you think!

Re: Anyone Else Notice People Going Coconuts?
 

Never heard of it.

...and lime.

Re: Anyone Else Notice People Going Coconuts?
 

I second that... Where do you buy it?

Re: Anyone Else Notice People Going Coconuts?
 

I believe this was bought at Tom Thumb. But most any grocery store should have them I believe.

Been drinking coconut juice for years...not for the health reasons, but because I love the taste. :D

Re: Anyone Else Notice People Going Coconuts?
 

And mighty tasty too. Have to get the fresh (green) ones though, not the brown.

Re: Anyone Else Notice People Going Coconuts?
 

I tried some a few days ago and thought it was gross. I have been told to try the mango flavored.

I get my coconut from a Mounds bar or coconut rum:)

Re: Anyone Else Notice People Going Coconuts?
 

I might try it if it does not taste like coconut...

Re: Anyone Else Notice People Going Coconuts?

I tried coconut Ice cream, cheese and coconut milk, but not water yet :)

Hangover helper. You're insane if you are paying the zico/major grocer price though. Find an ethnic (honestly don't know which one your shooting for, my wife brings it home) market that has coconut water it will be much cheaper.

Re: Anyone Else Notice People Going Coconuts?
 

I don't dislike coconut flavors however I have never tried coconut water.
It is funny you made this thread, I did just see a chef on t.v. using this as an ingredient and I thought to myself thats kinda odd.
