Coconuts
always make me picture the beach. Long stretches of white sandy shore, the
calming lap of waves, beautiful views out to the horizon over the ocean, tall
palms bending in the breeze, and plenty of sunshine.
Coconuts
have become the fruit (that’s right, they’re a fruit, not a nut!) of the moment
recently, in no small part due to their versatility. Their possible uses go way
beyond the culinary ones.
Coconuts
mainly grow near the equator in the tropical climates in parts of Asia, Africa,
Latin America, and the Pacific. In the United States, you’ll find them in
Hawaii and Florida.
