I decided to cut out vegetable oils and switch to coconut and olive oil in my cooking; according to the video, coconut oil and olive oil are the good fatty oils that helps burn fat, while other vegetable oils doesn't. <br /><br />I picked up a jar of coconut oil at fresh and easy today and made some seaweed popcorn as a snack and it was delicious! I love how the coconut oil doesn't have a strong smell and is easy to cook with! <br /><br /><3 thanks for sharing!rubynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18751784.post-84501240277686323442012-06-14T10:12:31.807-07:002012-06-14T10:12:31.807-07:00Ami...Nutritional yeast is inactive yeast that tas...Ami...Nutritional yeast is inactive yeast that tastes kind of like cheese, is high in B vitamins, and is a great cheese substitute for vegans.

A lot of fair-skinned people (I'm not fair) report that since they've incorporated coconut oil into their diets as part of a paleo lifestyle (I'm not paleo), they notice they no longer burn in the sun without sunscreen. It's a controversial position, but for those who do not like all the chemicals in sunscreens, ingesting coconut oil might be an option worth looking into.dgmhttp://dgm.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18751784.post-33416445864605683912012-06-13T16:06:43.473-07:002012-06-13T16:06:43.473-07:00Try adding a spoonful of honey and brown sugar to ...Try adding a spoonful of honey and brown sugar to your popped popcorn along with the coconut oil.
