Do You Remember?

I remember I immediately peeled it off with my teeth, but now I'm afraid my teeth will fall out if I bite something hard.

I prefer drinking coconut water from tender coconuts

I bought tools and this allows me to open the coconuts easily

I did not know coconut juice when I has a child. There were no coconuts around and they only sold it grated (the white part) to use for cookies. I had to grow up a lot to learn about coconunts and specially about piña coladas.

My Mother always bought a coconut and cut the pieces really small for us to eat. I never see them in the store to buy. I have bought a whole pineapple before and tha is really cut when you cut it up.

I never did this. They aren't available here.

We did this and also got sugarcane. We'd use butter knives to get the coconut out.

I've never opened a real coconut. I should put it on my bucket list. lol

You can see why I drove my mum bonkers. I didn't like coconut, except wrapped in chocolate!

I still do it. I can buy the coconut milk in cans or packets but l am trying to use less and less processed stuff. Added to that we have quite a number of coconut trees on the property. The only difference with now and back then is that l don't necessarily have to grate the coconut to extract the milk, instead l can use a blender.

We still do it . There are lot of dishes we use coconut in . usually we grate the flesh to use in chutneys , curries , etc .

Yes, I remember. I love coconut juice.
