Just curious, does the coconut oil I use for dry skin, and in my hair, .... count toward calories?

Nope, only if consumed and digested by the body

....what? Is this a serious question?

No, of course it doesn't. Unless you eat through osmosis.

Only if you topically apply it to your tongue.

I think it does. That's why a lot of times chefs get so fat. They are touching all that food.

Food doesn't get absorbed

Into your skin & hair, like any lotion or conditioner - just because it's an edible item doesn't mean it's calories automatically end up in your system. Otherwise, we'd all surely be reading nutrition labels on all our hair and skincare products.

I know you're just kidding but when I had my store a customer said she couldn't use my soaps because it contained aloe butter. I said why are you allergic? She said no my dr. said I have high cholesterol and couldn't have any butter. Her sisters looked at her like she had 3 heads and said are you serious? They really razzed her for it. She honestly thought she couldn't use soaps or lotions made with any type of "butter" because of her cholesterol. We all just :noway:
