Coconut

[takao]

First the tools.

My helper Kalohe.

Chop the top part off.

Then use the pointed part of the pick to husk the coconut.

Use a small knife to make a hole on the top of the coconut to get the juice, then use the back of the machete to crack open the coconut.

Then you can use the same small knife to cut out the meat of the coconut.

Don't eat too much of this in one sitting, or you will be spending some time in the out house.

Every time see a coconut it reminds me of something out of the movie Castaway.
I never thought about using a pick to take the husk off. Good Idea!

Takao, what's up brah? Man that pick takes me back. It looks like the exact kind I used as a kid in Kaneohe. Yo Kauai cuz who woulda thought an outa island boy would be mo sophistcated than us guys. We neva even have a machete. No wonder it took me for ever. Miss that fresh coconut juice. Mahalo for the memory.

Did anyone see the episode of Suvivorman where he was on the island? He opened a coconut that had a semi-solid center. It kind of looked like Styrofoam. What stage of development is that?

 

[takao]

I think that was a old coconut.
