Does anyone use Red Palm Oil? I looked online to purchase some and there were SOOOOO many choices. I don't want o just choose one, so I thought I would ask which brand is best.

Thanks in advance!!

    I got some from Whole Foods and well quite frankly it's kinda bleh :sick: and it turns everything red (and I mean everything)!!!!

    So it just sits in my pantry until I get up the nerve to try it again!!!!!!

    The first time I tried red palm oil I didn't like the taste, either. It's nasty!

    But I used it to make fried rice (asian style) and it was the best fried rice I'd made to date!

    Mind, I don't make fried rice anymore, and I ended up not buying more palm oil when I finished the first jar. I prefer coconut oil.
