Good news! Your Monday just got 117% better. You can make a vat of Tropical Traditions coconut oil come your way for FREE.

I like free swag, don’t you? Of course you do. You’re human.

Not only is this any swag, but we’re talking a giant stash of the best coconut oil around. Tropical Traditions is a family-run company that uses strictly the highest quality ingredients in their products.

Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil - 32 oz.

“Win 1 quart of Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil!

Tropical Traditions is America’s source for coconut oil. Their Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil is hand crafted in small batches by family producers, and it is the highest quality coconut oil they offer. You can read more about how virgin coconut oil is different from other coconut oils on their website: What is Virgin Coconut Oil?

You can also watch the video they produced about Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil:

Tropical Traditions also carries other varieties of affordable high quality coconut oil. Visit their website to check on current sales, to learn about the many uses of coconut oil, and to read about all the advantages of buying coconut oil online. Since the FDA does not want us to discuss the health benefits of coconut oil on a page where it is being sold or given away, here is the best website to read about the health benefits of coconut oil.”

 

One very lucky Foodie Fiasco reader (I’m talking to you!) will win a 1 Quart (32 FL oz.) glass jar of Tropical Traditions Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil, which has a retail value of $50.00!

Here are some of my favorite recipe in which you can use coconut oil (sub in coconut oil for applesauce in most of these recipes unless noted otherwise).

    • Does it help with hair growth? Or what are the benefits of putting it on your hair? And how do you use it? Thanks, Grace :)
      Reply

      • Hi Grace! I just put a small amount in the palm of my hands and then I run my fingers through my hair. I have coarse frizzy hair, coconut oil makes it really soft and reduces frizz. For hair growth I would recommend castor oil though ;)

  123. I love using coconut oil in baking! In two months, I'm participating in a Relay for Life event for the American Cancer Society, and I am needed to fundraise like crazy. As part of meetig our individual and collective fundraising goals, my team will be presenting various opportunities to gather donations at our booth during the event, and for one of my contributions I'm baking and selling my absolute favorite (healthy!) graham cracker cookie recipe that calls for coconut oil. It's the perfect time to educate people about healthy coconut fats, am I right? Plus, I love cutting the cookies into heart shapes! The thing is, my budget is super tight—not something coconut oil favors very much. The coconut oil from the giveaway would be a massive help! Plus, any money that would've been used buying coconut oil could instead become a direct donation towards my team's fundraising. Not such a bad trade-off, huh?
