Where to buy Coconut?

[Jobu1977]

Does anyone have an online site or a special store they go to buy unsweeted flaked/shredded coconut? I cant seem to find it in any grocery store.... ever....

In UK it is usually in the baking section in the supermarkets.

I can't find it here either (Colorado, USA). I posted a board asking a few months ago and was told that I'd just have to buy it fresh in the produce section.

[Jobu1977]

yeah.. they have it in the baking section, its just that its all sweetened....

Oh man.........I'm in Thailand right now and you can buy fresh coconut on the street... The water has 4-5G of carbs and the 'meat' is mostly fat. Both of which aren't allowed on induction.

Oh yeah... and when you buy them on the street here they're only .25 US... ha.

That and the BBQ carts are great. I can eat a FULL BBQ and chicken dinner (with cucumber) for $1.25 ... w00t.

You can find unsweetened shredded coconut at Whole Foods, and other natural food stores.

Yea, Whole Foods sells it in the bulk section where you scoop out however much you want.
