Coconut Oil
Coconut Oil is an edible oil extracted from the meat of coconuts and is widely used in tropical cuisines, baking, and frying for its distinctive aroma and stable cooking properties. It is almost entirely fat and notable for being rich in saturated fats — about 82.5g per 100g — which gives it a solid texture at room temperature and a long shelf life. Nutritionally it provides little protein, fiber or micronutrients and is best used sparingly; because of its high saturated fat content, many people choose unsaturated vegetable oils (like olive or avocado oil) as healthier alternatives for everyday cooking.
