Coconut oil is a popular and quite nutritious oil derived from the flesh of mature coconuts. Coconut has been the main food source for those living in the tropics for centuries, but its use in industry and cosmetology has established it as a fairly viable commodity. Coconut oil is heat resistant and thus suitable for cooking at high temperatures. It oxidizes slowly, is resistant to corrosion and has a shelf life of about two years or more. The pure coconut cream that comes out with the wet milling process has an unlimited shelf life.
