I am yet to try one of their soups that isn't awesome - really good macros for those dieting. No nonsense garbage just natural ingredients. Fairly high protein for soup too.

Could anyone recommend a coconut oil that has a mild coconut taste to it? (Preferebly easy to find)
I just finished a jar from woolies that was good for cooking meats but had no coconut aroma or taste to it.

What's a the best tasting grated cheese that has high protein, low carbs+fat?
I currently eat kraft live free cheese - 10g protein, <1g fat and carbs. Did I answer my own question? Anything else like it out there?

Anyone had any of the new advertised long rolls at Oporto? The jalapeno one is pretty good. Decent macros too (640 cals: 37.7g protein, 20.9g fat, 70.2g carbs)

You could just use some coconut milk to add the flavour?

Use coconut butter instead - tastes awesome (it is essentially creamed coconut).

So does the Melorose one from Coles not have a coconut flavour?


If not, what is the flavour?

How versatile is it if it DOES have a flavour though? As in would I want to cook something like a tomatoes/chicken dish with it?

In any case; I came across this just googling quickly.

Buy, unsweetened desiccated coconut and blend it in a thermo-mix.

I've heard mention of waldens just not pop tarts! Must have missed it, hard to keep up to date with every post..

Yeah? I'm still yet to try if that's the case it will be the first and last.

I haven't tasted this one - but Oil and Butter are (should be) completely different. Unfortunately companies still call the 'oil' a 'butter' (because it looks like butter), so it gets confusing.

For this one - I would imagine it is a 'oil' judging by the 'virgin / cold pressed' label.

Anyway - The oil is just the fat content - so it has a blander taste (faint taste of coconut only). It essentially acts like ghee/ solid fat - and can therefore be used in cooking with ease. The butter *should* be the coconut version of peanut butter or almond butter (it is the whole pulp blended and creamed). It has a rich coconut flavour and is ultra yummy.... But it isn't as useful for cooking (as it is more of a paste than a butter / oil).

In any case; I came across this just googling quickly.

I would if I had a thermo-mix... those things cost $2500 a pop though.
