Butter or coconut fat page 2

[Derpamix]

I like both too but I find my sense of which tastes better changes. Sometimes I am craving one and sometimes the other. Then there are some times that one or the other just doesn't appeal at all. It would be interesting to explore the biochemical mechanisms behind those changes.

What sort of coconut oil do you use? I don't get any allergic reactions from extra virgin, so I've just been using that because it's a lot cheaper at Trader Joe's. If there are some superior tasting coconut oils out there, I'm all for a change though.

I use Nutiva brand which I find at Sprouts or Whole Paycheck.

Haha, Whole Paycheck. Thanks, I'll buy that next time I'm at Sprouts.

Get on Nutiva's website. They run some really good deals from time to time and typically send out an email once a week with a combo package. Last weeks was 1/2gal of EVCO and some coconut manna, hemp and chia seeds for like $50 or something, free shipping to boot.

Thanks to everyone! I think I'll go with the butter first. I read that if one is doing the paleo and is still hungry it could possibly be from not eating enough fat.

True that. Hunger isn't really an issue since bulletproof coffee and KerryGold.

I think I need to get more fat in my diet because I am craving bread and other processed carbs and I read that could be because one is not getting enough fat in their diet.

craving bread & processed carbs because you're not getting enough fat? did it ever occur to you that it's because you're not getting enough carbs? seems like less of a jump, to me.

[ryanmercer]

I prefer butter myself.

[Terry H]

Good point. I'm on a lo CHO for health reasons and found it necessary to incl. in a bit more. In my case that was the key-more CHO that is, as opposed to even more fat.

Are you joking or a troll??? Have you nor read The Primal Blueprint? Low carbs amigo. That's why I am asking.
