    What have you been eating today

    Thanks Andy, I am not a great lover of plain coconut oil so I generally flavour it with something like ground peanuts, or a bit of sweetener and vanilla essence, etc... then leave it to set in the fridge... I chip bits off and it goes well in the yoghurt and cream and gets me some extra...
