Every coconut contains a layer of meat, around a pint of water, and a tiny seed the size of a pearl. After almost 6 months in the tree, the coconut will drop to the ground. After a few more months, the seed fills the coconut and starts consuming the meat. The meat becomes a thin crispy layer. This creates a big spongy mass. Really not sure what the craze is about eating coconut embryos so I thought I’d do a little experiment. Mostly to find out if the sapling will still continue to grow into a tree after removing its food source. Still can’t imagine why someone would want to kill an already growing tree just for a snack. It doesn’t taste all that great or has any more nutrients then just drinking the coconut water. I personally will not be doing this again even if the coconut remains alive. Simply not worthwhile and there are no studies to claim its marketed benefits. They contain about 66% carbohydrates, around 64% of which are soluble sugars. ・・・ #growninhaiti #experimentation #coconut #sproutedcoconut #coconutabortion #embryonicsac #replant #haiti #ayiti #notworthit #commercialism #lettreesgrow #reforestation #preservation https://www.instagram.com/p/B3zEkHVFPFq/?igshid=oe07tkqdscbv
