I tried it a couple of yrs. ago and found the coconut flavor added unpleasant taste to what I was cooking in it. Don't remember the brand.
Do they all do that ? Imagine it would be hard to disguise the flavor or have you found one that isn't strong tasting.

Would appreciate your input if you have found one you really like and tell me why please. -- Thanks in advance

I prefer Tropical Traditions coconut oil, but it definitely tastes like coconut. I had another brand of expeller-pressed coconut oil that didn't have any kind of taste. I can't remember what it was, however, and I'm don't have any on hand right now. I got it at a local health food store in my town. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

If you like the taste of coconut, then look for "virgin" coconut oil, and always look for expeller-pressed or "cold processed" on the label. :)
