I bought mine in the capital. Lovely stuff!
i think it may be another of "too expensive to sell in DR" cases. and local people may not like the look of it. i'm starting to get interested in coconut oil myself. the very same oil utilized in cooking can be also used as body lotion and hair treatment...
I love a girl with coconut oil in her hair. I'll pass on it in her mouth, unless.....
see? i said it, too expensive for daily use. but i see the potential there, DR exports lots of coconuts, making 100% pure organic oil for export would be a great idea. coconut oil in very much in now and lots of big names are making cosmetics with coconut...
i imagine making it yourself is still a lot of work, thou.
Talking about coconuts, what happened with literally thousands of palm trees along route 7 from Santo Domingo to Nagua?
