John from www.okraw.com shows how to easily open a coconut with a standard chefs knife, and then shares the easiest tool to get the coconut meat out. He also shares his coconut vanilla shake using real vanilla bean

Thanks a million! I tried cutting the coconut like this and worked exactly as shown.

hey thanks for this video. i just followed your directions & opened my first coconut! followed your knife directions... emptied the water into my vitamix, followed it w/the meat. i have a sweet tooth, so i added 1/2 pitted date and a few drops of vanilla extract. blended it up and found it was a delicious and refreshing drink!

Thank you so much for the demo on opening a coconut. I thought using a cleaver was a bit much. Lol

Worked like a charm. Although I used the large meat cleaver like you show in your mature coconuts video and it worked great! Now I just need to find a smaller ice cream scoop so coconut meat comes out as easy as Johns. Thanks for the video.

I really enjoyed your video. I would love to have the recipie for your smoothly printed out. Can you share your source of vanilla beans. It would also be wonderful if you could talk just a little slower. :) Thank you

I went to three farm grocers and no one has young coconut.Is there a season for it or are they just hard to find? Thank you MARY JANE

Is the coconut meat healthy for you? I have heard it is high in saturated fats but read that they are good fats. Just asking for your info.

This man contradicts himself, but not about coconuts. He says how he likes McDonalds shakes, and later on he says you should eat everything whole and fresh. So why does he drink a toxic chemical coctails at McRotten Ronies, and then proclaim all the ideals of whole and fresh food?

He was eating in McDonalds before he started eating raw food.
