Cheaper coconut oil capsules

[Edward]

I went to order some coconut oil capsules and I notice Natures way are doing a deal, 3 packs for £20. I don't know if there would be a similar deal if ordering in the US but I thought I'd flag it up in case anyone is interested. It's cheaper than Holland and Barrett.

Just wondering... why do you want capsules, when you can just buy a jar of coconut oil? It's nutritious and delicious!

Edward stated earlier it's because of the convenience He's a Lorry driver (whatever the hell that is)

Maybe?:

The coconut oil business is another that is really taking off, and the prices with it.
When I was working in Tonga last year I visited a Virgin coconut oil plant a few times to buy. In their stockroom they had the same oil in several different packages - little 100ml pots with nice labels and promises of eternal life that were sold in NZ boutiques for $30, down to reused 1.5 litre water bottles full for $5. The same oil from the same process aimed at different markets and wallet sizes.
I would suggest you just get the cheapest deal you can - chances are it is just as good as the stuff sold in luxury spa shops.

As @HeadHodge says, easier in the lorry.

In the UK the largest type of truck is called a lorry. I believe it's the opposite where you are? The one below is from 13 years ago according to the date on the picture file.

I know that looks small to a US trucker but you should see some of the roads we have to drive on over here.

This is an American Lorry:

Also called a "Semi" for some reason. Pictured above is the heinous tandem semi, which is legal in some states.

But as far as coconut oil goes, it seems a jar would be pretty easy too. Just use a spoon?

This is obsolete with the use of the new 'Highway Pilot' tech.

If @Edward was in a Hwy Pilot convoy, he could shave, drink kava, and eat coconut oil while reading a book.

I keep a small jar in my desk and just spoon feed throughout the day to stave off hunger. I imagine you could do the same in the lorry. It remains a soft solid at temperatures below 78 F 26 C.

So in Florida, its generally a liquid in my house (I'm cheap and keep the AC up fairly high,) but at my work its a solid.

Lol yeah I know it's gonna be hot day at the restraunt when my coconut oil is melted at 8 am

 

[Edward]

@y'all don't ask me why but a mouth full of coconut oil doesn't appeal. The capsules are quick and easy with no mess.

I love a spoonful of good coconut oil. I also really like to mix a tablespoon of coconut oil with a tablespoon of almond butter, makes a delicious veggie dip.

 

[Zac Imiola (Herbalist)]

Mmmmm that sounds downright dangerously delicious

Says a man who drinks kava! Ha!

Yeah, but your desk isn't barrelling down the highway at 125 kph, with 40 tons of cargo... At least I hope not

In the low carb diet community there is a ridiculous thing called "Bullet Proof Coffee" which is basically a cup of coffee blended with a stick of butter. I have never tried it... but some people swear by it.

Similar to @Mrbinx69 with the coffee and coconut oil mix. I have wondered what yerba mate would taste like with a spoon of oil but I prefer a drop of honey, or just straight up. Then just take the oil capsules and be done with it

The guy who "invented" that concept was a bit fanatical. I've tried it, and it's not bad, but I prefer my coffee sans accoutrements.

Yeah decaff and coconut oil is amazing
