Raw Truth About Coconut Water & Coconut Meat - With Mighty Bee
In our coco loco big city lives, the trend of living on coconut water is a breath of fresh air. With all the nutrients real coconuts are rich in (coconut by the way is not nut but fruit, just like plum or cherry) it's only natural that coconuts in all shapes and forms quickly made it to our tables, post-gym routines and chilled strolls in a park. However, the is a catch: not all coconut products are made the same. It's only raw and virgin coconut water that is worth going nuts for (ditch the sugar-packed mainstream coconut drinks that are a far cry from real coconut water), together with coconut meat - the white tender lining inside the shall that - naturally - goes hand in hand with the coconut water. If you are with me on it, let me introduce you to MightyBee - a 'community committed to change the way we think about, deliver and consume food, one coconut at a time'.
