I have read only positive things on coconut oil.  i have used it in part to
replace butter (also animal fat to replace butter).  I have read that a
teaspoon in the morning and one at night is extremely good for you for a
number of reasons that I'll link you to.  I am also experiencing the wide
range of coconut milk.  I am wondering though how much a can of coconut milk
equates to coconut oil.  anybody know?
