Is suitable to fry my chips in it. It takes me back a bit does Coconut oil I can remember all the mess from that though it is good stuff.

Biona Organic Raw Virgin Coconut Oil ?
Never heard of that one, though I would have thought coconut oil was all the same ?
Right, i'll look on fleabay & amazon for this.
And some pine oil too to mix in with it.

Yes that's about right. Biona Organic Raw Virgin Coconut Oil 800 g on Amazon UK £14:45 and free delivery.
It's a big pot I get through 1 - 2 per year.
And NO not all Coconut Oil is the same, the cheaper ones a rubbish and not worth the money in my opinion.
Yes you can have it on toast and cook with it or eat it raw, but I just use it as a moisturiser for my skin.
Have a read of this thread [thread=568] to see how good it is for you.
