they were selling canned ones at costco a little while back, not quite sure if they still have it. its 100% coconut water with nothing else added but its not the same as cracking open up a young coconut yourself. the difference between the two is night and day.

there are many benefits to coconut water, its nature's gatorade!

the only canned coconut juice i drink is blue monkey and i buy them at whole foods. you can also buy the fresh young coconut juice that is already chopped and ready to poke a straw and drink at whole foods. they are about $3.86 each but really good and you can eat the coconut meat as well.

they also put sodium nitrite on philippine dried mangos
