commercially dispensing coconut oil/can it go bad?

March 31, 2011

Hello. I'm a new member that sought out this forum looking for a bit of

knowledge. I have a new friend that is opening a small neighborhood grocery

store here in Chicago. I recommended that she use a small heat mat under a

liquid oil dispenser to include coconut oil in her bulk oil offerings. Now we

are wondering if storing the coconut oil on a warming pad could cause it to go

bad.

I already use a heat mat to warm my coconut oil and pour it into smaller

containers. It didn't occur to me that my oil could possibly go rancid if I left

it on the heat mat for a prolonged time.

Any input on this?

Thank you!!

, whether the oil will stale depends on the quality of the virgin coconut

oil as much as the temperature it's kept at.

Industry spokesperson Vinia Marquez, who represents the largest coconut oil

wholesaler in North America, says she doesn't sell traditionally-produced virgin

coconut oil that's over four months old because it stales even at room

temperature.

She calls this original traditional product " virgin 2 " because of the huge

difference between it and the top products, which have a shelf life of well over

a year. These gourmet oils will also be very competitive with regard to buying

bulk drums or 5 gal pails to re-can on your site. In my view the

pharmaceutically pure oil Virgin Oil de Coco Creme is worth the expense, the

company has some of the lowest prices especially on your larger orders, and

there's no problem at all with staling.

Say Hi to Vinia for me; she's the inventor of patented extraction equipment that

makes pharmaceutically pure " extra virgin " or " virgin #1 " VCO in a single pass.

She'll probably take your order herself and also answer any detailed questions;

she's a biochemist who can answer even the hardest questions on her products

....and you'll probably love to have her entire line of exotic oils and foods in

your store.

Why is it that this company does not list the prices of its products

online? I suspect that they are probably higher but I hate having to

give out my email information and then continually receiving emails

when I might not even be interested in purchasing. It always puts me

off a vendor when they do not list their pricing.

Thanks,

Jennie

I think the company doesn't list retail prices online because although they are

interested in your business, their real money comes from being the biggest

coconut oil wholesaler in North America, so they put more effort into their main

business of selling container loads and smaller wholesale lots than a few retail

sales. You'll find Vinia and the company to be approachable though; they've even

sent free samples of their Virgin Oil de Coco Creme they extract by their

proprietary method to people on this list and the candidiasis list who called

them up ...maybe they still will; just mention it to Vinia Marquez.
