		<description>Hi Blair,

There isn&#039;t a good source of information for the calories of young coconut meat that I have found.  If you look it up in the USDA database, you get nutrition info for mature coconut meat (from the brown, hairy coconuts you typically see in the supermarket).  Besides, young coconuts vary in size so it&#039;s almost impossible to know, exactly, what the calories or nutrition info would be.  Your best bet is to go to an Asian market and look at the box they come in, which might have a nutrition label on the side, but that label would be for the entire coconut.  You might also be able to find nutrition information online, just make sure it&#039;s for young coconut.  Typically, a young coconut (meat and water) contains around 170-200ish calories, but even that&#039;s a rough estimate.  I just take this estimate and incorporate it into my daily caloric needs.  I drink both the water and eat the meat, so I don&#039;t worry about it.</description>

		<description>Sadly those young Thai coconuts are grown with lots of pesticides, picked up to 8 weeks before they hit the grocery store shelves, and are often dipped in fungicides prior to shipping in order to cut down on the mold growth. In a word: &lt;i&gt;Yuck!&lt;/i&gt;

I loooooove using coconut meat in smoothies and other raw food recipes though. After searching and searching, I finally found a good source for &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.florida-coconuts.com/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;organic young green coconuts&lt;/a&gt; out of Florida. Reasonably priced too!</description>
