I use it to make popcorn. It works well for the purpose. There’s no coconut odor in coconut oil for cooking. Corn oil, Canola and hydrogenated oils like Crisco just don’t agree with me, they seem to be indigestible. Butter, bacon drippings, beef tallow, and small amounts of coconut oil seem to be safer. Olive oil too, but much of it is counterfeit.
Industrial seed oils are a likely culprit in chronic inflammation.
I agree with everything you said in this post.
I’m use organic coconut oil to fry my pancakes. The enhanced flavor is incredible. Other than that I hardly ever use it.
My understanding is that coconut oil was the oil of choice for movie-theater popcorn... and that’s why it tasted so good. Not sure if they still use it.
Canola & soybean oils are crap, and anything fried in them tastes pretty lousy, IMO.
Agreed...coconut oil is outstanding for cooking popcorn.
