Same old Nut


Beach Rescue
Clean Machete, No Waiting.
My education in coconut consumption has begun.  How far we've come from sugary Angel branded flakes marketed by Baker in the1960's.  In addition to the now readily available dried or fresh meat, I've had the delicious experience of identifying a few other coconut options here in the Caribbean.                                                                                          When coconut is still green, a Young Coconut, the white meat is delightfully soft.  You can eat it with a spoon, literally.  In an even younger nuts, Jelly Coconut, a sweet, smooshy jelly forms on the inside cavity.  The water inside a coconut is always refreshing, although the machetes that do the whacking aren't always clean.

If a coconut falls in the grove and no one is there to eat it, is it still delicious?
