Can you explain the difference, writes Ben, between hydrogenated coconut oil, not oil, and extra virgin coconut oil? Yeah, extra virgin oil has all of the aroma and good flavor, but it also has 2 or 3% of PUFA left in it. And it has some proteins, which for some people are allergenic. The hydrogenated has been not only thoroughly deodorized so there's no taste, but it has been treated so there's no PUFA left. So it's extremely, coconut oil itself is very stable against oxidation, but the hydrogenated form is essentially resistant. You just don't have the breakdown.
