anyone ever try it?
not milk, not cream but water...



Forget about artificial sports drinks. Now the natural thirst killer is here: Coconut water. Biologically pure, tasty and full of the salts, sugars and vitamins needed by athletes - both the Olympic kind and weekend warriors....

It's not a question of where he grips it! It's a simple question of weight ratios! A five ounce bird could not carry a one pound coconut

Listen, in order to maintain airspeed velocity, a swallow needs to beat its wings forty-three times every second, right?

I drank coconut water in florida whenever I visited my grandfather as a kid. I drank this water straight from the coconut because I was thirsty while walking. Don't remember liking it much, but it was a better choice than the ditch or swamp water. I also remember those flat cactus's with the long needles that grew alongside the road like weeds. I used to kick them until one needle went thru the front of my sneaker. Didn't like that much either.

That cream, most famously found in Coconut Cream Pie, is from a species of coconut only found in Tahiti and some of the surrounding islands.

On some of these remote Islands, the natives celebrate the Coconut harvest with a ritualistic dance in which the young, perky, bronzed women coat themselves in coconut cream and offer themselves to the men......

Coconut water
- Yes have drank it.
- Does quench thirst.
- Good for rehydration when one has the dreaded Dehli belly

- Does NOT taste very good
- Anything coconut has stratospheric cholesterol, and NO, not the good cholesterol.

I can't stop thinking of Mutiny on The Bounty or Papilion now. I need a Tahiti Hottie.

The first one I cracked open (took me a while)surprised me too, because I was expecting milk. It was a slightly murky water. I got better at opening them.
