Of course, you can buy all coconut oil in any Migros supermarket.
But I would be very happy about the Virgin Coconut Oil.
Not only can you fry meat with it, you can also use it to conjure up great desserts that are healthy too.
It's hard to believe, but VCO is really healthy.

However, it is no "healthier" than our local rapeseed oil. And unfortunately, a lot of forest is often cut down to grow monoculture. Or is it different with VCO?
Oh yes, as a coconut fan, I agree with Amaya! However, I prefer coconut products from "Amanprana" and "Tropicai".
@moz, yes, it seems to be different with virgin (as well as Amanprana and Tropicai): http://www.virgin-coconut-oil.de/unternehmen/fair-trade-for-fair-life.php
Coconut oil is the only oil I still use. All other oils would spoil for me. Coconut oil, on the other hand, lasts forever and is extremely versatile, even as an all-round skin care product: http://www.virgin-coconut-oil.de/produkte/kokosoel.php#verwendung
I use defatted coconut flour from Amanprana and Tropicai even more often than coconut oil. Advantages: gluten-free, high in fiber, high in protein, low carb, low in calories and above all super tasty. I sprinkle it into my muesli, bake with it, make my own Raffaellos and eat it pure :-).
But for now, I would be happy if Migros at least offered Fairtrade coconuts and Fairtrade coconut milk.
@indios: In the health food store. I bought Tropicai in a Swiss health food store. You can certainly get Amanprana at Reformhaus Bacher in Germany. Otherwise you can perhaps also order online. But beware: danger of addiction and the whole cupboard smells deliciously of coconut ;-). Lg, "Twilight"
@Twilight
I agree Tropicai coconut flour is something I use a lot too. Only the Amanprana VCO hasn't crossed my path yet. I'll have to keep my eyes open.
@moz:
I'm not quite sure about that. But I don't want to get carried away. I have in mind that VCO is better than rapeseed oil.
@indios:
I bought Tropicai at M**** health food store. Don't know if I'm allowed to advertise here. Apart from that, I'm lucky enough to be able to buy the stuff in Germany (relatives there). But I would prefer to buy in Switzerland.
Dear Migipedia team
Have you ever tasted VCO in the meantime?
Sautéed a chicken breast in it?
Made pralines out of it?
Definitely give it a try, even if it's not for the Migros range.

Hello Amaya
Thanks for the info and the tip. I've never tried it before, but it sounds exciting and would probably be worth a try :).
Best regards
