ALL ABOUT NATURAL GROCERS BRAND PRODUCTS COCONUT OILS

"With all Natural Grocers Brand Products, we believe our customers will notice positive differentiators between our brand and that of others. Our Coconut Oil is no exception. This product is a high-grade, unrefined premium nutritional edible oil obtained from the first cold pressing of organic coconut kernels. This keeps the contents in optimal condition," said Natural Grocers' Vice President of Purchasing, Laura Perkins. "We are proud to put this product on our shelves, knowing it represents our commitment to quality, while also sourced from a Sri Lankan manufacturer committed to its local community."

Natural Grocers Director of Nutrition Education and Natural Foods Chef, Karen Falbo says, "Coconut oil is the perfect fat for sauteing meats and vegetables, and it makes baked goods delectable. Loaded with medium-chain fatty acids which have been shown to support brain and immune system function along with high levels of free-radical scavengers, there's good reason this fat has become a prized cooking oil."

With the holidays fast-approaching, Falbo recommends her Creamy Coconut Fudge recipe, which can be made with quality Natural Grocers Brand Products—including the new Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, fresh ground almond butter and Natural Grocers Brand Organic Grade A Dark Maple Syrup.
