Hi Jean,
Thanks for the lead. What's the Frieda's section? I actually have no idea if I'm looking for real baby coconuts (I thought I was, now I'm not sure) or coquito nuts. I didn't even know coquito nuts existed. Are they canned or bagged or fresh?? Thanks. Jen Half the people you know are below average. -Steven Wright |

Size 4 packages/ 3 ounces each * SHIPS UPS 2nd BUS. DAY My God, 4 x 3oz.= 12 ounces. $41.40 for 3/4 of a pound. That comes to about $55/pound. $121/kilo. Not quite the price of some illegal produce, but quite a bit more than cashews. Yes, shipping is included, but that's still expensive. Ken |

Still expensive, but not as bad as that. -- Jean B. |

I actually ended up buying the coquito nuts through the Melissa's website,
where the same 3 bags plus shipping = $20 instead of $40! Even though Melissa's products are distributed through Shaw's Markets, the ones I called (and the Bread and Circus I also called) didn't actually carry these. Too obscure for mass market appeal, I guess ![]() I'll report back on flavor once they arrive!! -Jen Half the people you know are below average. -Steven Wright |
