OK I know we're not supposed to eat coconut, but does that include coconut milk? Thanks in advance for your replies!
Coconut is discouraged because it is fibrous...can cause you to become stuck. Coconut milk is discouraged (except occasionally) because it is high fat and calorie and goes down really easy! It is fine as a bit of sauce (maybe a tablespoon) but not too much. The light coconut milk is much better from a nutritional standpoint, much lower calorie.
Well i eat it! And drink it! Not all that often because of the cals but I have no foods I totally avoid.
