Good Food!

Coconut oil quickly goes bad in clear plastic or glass containers because of exposure to light.  Even if you refrigerate the oil when you get home - how long has it been sitting in the direct light at the store?  Coconut oil develops a slightly rancid flavor from light exposure which gets worse as time goes on.  Omega Nutrition, smart folks that they are, package their coconut oil / butter in a dark, opague container.  I’ve never tasted even slight rancidity from Omega’s excellent tasting oil.  Note: it should be refrigeratered after opening.
