What to do with it? It sat around for a few months until one day I was having a really bad hair day (I have long curly hair), and I made a hair mask from the coconut oil. This led me to the realisation that it was great for hands left sore from endless disinfecting.
later my husband used it to rub into a wooden aikido 'jo' he had just sanded down, and followed it up with using it to rub on a sticking window frame.
The next use was when one of my adult kids helpfully cleaned my cast iron Lodge Dutch Oven with a steel pad and washing up liquid. The coconut oil was brilliant for re-seasoning the pan.
Finally I discovered it can be used to remove a sticky label from a glass jar.
So many people had told me of the benefits of coconut oil and asked why I didn't use it. And I had no idea what wonderful stuff it was....
