    From experience: all stages of a coconut are distinct, edible and used for different dishes, treats, condiments and ingredients. It’s truly a wonderous plant and sad that most Americans are only familiar with the overripe, hard kind with hard flesh.

      i think they’re only familiar with it (edit: the overripe stuff) because they don’t pay attention to their thai food. that has exploded in popularity over the last few decades and fuck yeah.
