Yellow coconut

Did you know that if you leave desicated coconut in the cupboard for long enough, it goes a pale shade of yellow?

I had no idea until tonight. I knew we were running low, so I bought a new bag today. I measured out what was in the jar, then topped it up with fresh stuff from the new bag, and hey, the two were totally different colours. Like pissing in the snow after having a Berroca.

The things you learn.......

I wonder if no name branded coconut is a different colour from a real brand. No name raw sugar is a different colour from the more pricey CSR stuff. Maybe no name brands aren't real food? Maybe they have to totally bleach the crap out them (like the packet we just bought) to conceal the imperfections John West would have rejected. J xo
