On a trip to Hawaii a few years ago my husband and I were exploring the Garden of Eden and it was really hot out so we stopped to get a fresh coconut from a vendor. It was good but it wasn’t that refreshing because the coconut had been sitting out in the hot sun all day. When Sean and I tried this Genuine Coconut from Costco we both said “this is what we wanted in Hawaii” because it so refreshing and cold due to being in the fridge!

I found the coconuts in the corner of the cold produce room. The item number is 1358123.

Taste

If you’ve ever had fresh coconut water and meat before that’s exactly what this is! The coconuts had a TON of coconut water in them and was really refreshing and delicious, we shared one and both had lots of coconut water to enjoy.

The coconut meat isn’t that easy to get out and it took my husband using a knife to get it out but once you get it out it’s fresh and tasty real-deal coconut!

Cost

I paid $7.99 Canadian for two Genuine Coconut Eat & Drink fresh coconuts! Each coconut comes with a straw and bamboo stick.

Convenience

There’s an arrow on the coconut that points to the soft spot on the coconut that you use the bamboo stick to puncture. Once you puncture the coconut you pop your straw in and enjoy the fresh coconut water! It’s a really fun product and process to punch your own hole!

The meat is really hard to get out and you need a knife to do so, I thought it would come out pretty easily but that wasn’t the case. Once opened the packaging suggests drinking coconut water within 24 hours and eating coconut meat within 5 days.

The best before date on the coconut is about a month from the date we purchased them and they need to be kept refrigerated.

I think these fresh coconuts would be amazing to serve to guests at a themed party or summer barbecue! People will totally love how unique these are.

The coconut water was really tasty and refreshing, the meat not as much but this compares favorably to the fresh coconut we had in Hawaii but was nice because it was cold!

  1. Horrible, I got some from Costco in Haydock and after drinking it, thought it tasted awful, so I emptied it into a glass and could see it had floating mould in it when I cracked it open it was mouldy inside absolutely disgusting. I wish I could upload the pictures on here so you could see it.

  2. Those are old coconuts, what you want is the young coconuts where the flesh scrapes out with a SPOON and the coconut water is a lot better and MORE. These look disappointing for real coconut lovers.
