I surprisingly enjoyed this product.
This product comes in a great size. Upon opening I smelled it in the bottle and was not pleased. I also tasted it on my finger and again I was not immediately won over. It was a bitter taste and smell. However, when using it to cook a simple egg I was delighted to say that the oil worked very well. There was no smoking or flavor given off at all. Upon eating the easy over egg I delighted in the light taste of the egg with no taste of the oil at all. It did not cling to the egg making it greasy and there was no after taste at all. There was no odor in the kitchen after cooking with it. Now if it was supposed to have a taste of coconut and avocado then I'd say it failed but for my interest in using the product it passed surprisingly well and I will continue to use this product.

A little pricey, but great flavor!
I used this to stir-fry some veggies for dinner and it was delicious. I definitely approve. I'm curious to see how it behaves in other dishes.

Great avocado and coconut combo oil
This oil is naturally rich in Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT) which is efficiently utilized by the body for energy production and helps aid in calorie burning. Also this has high Monounsaturated Fats which are the good and necessary fats needed in healthy diets. Accodingly to product label, this is all natural, gluten free, hexane free, NON-GMO, free of hydrogenated and trans fats. Great taste and compatible with any food. A little expensive than regular oil but with lots of health benefits. Will definitely buy again.

Great alternative to traditional oil
I have used this oil as a substitute for traditional EVOO. My baked goods tasted the same, using it to spray the bottom of pans, had items cook & bake the same. Putting it in salad dressing had great taste- rich & creamy effects. The benefits of switching to avacado oil are too many to be listed: a healthier oil, lower cholesterol, better kind of fat, has fiber... I'm so excited to have this oil in my pantry!

Really unique flavor
I was very impressed with this coconut an avocado oil and the way that I used it easily while baking. It actually had a really great and unique flavor plus I like the fact that it's a more natural and healthier option

This oil is Fabulous
I was actually very hesitant to try this product. The combination of Coconut and Avocado made me wonder about the taste. I used it right away to make a salad dressing and, Oh, My Gosh! The taste is light and delicious! I highly recommend this product! A new favorite for me!

Works well, stays liquid. Seems expensive
Carrington Farms Coconut & Avocado Blend Cooking Oil worked well for sauteing and did stay liquid as promised. I couldn't taste coconut or avocado in it so it will substitute for any oil. I am not sure that the cost is worth the benefit of this oil.

good oil
Easy to use this oil and nice taste. I would use it in place of my olive oil.

Has light buttery, nutty flavor hints.
I used this oil for sauteing broccoli and when popping popcorn. It has light buttery, nutty flavor hints - not really like you can taste coconut or avocado, but definitely enhanced the flavor of both foods for me. The high price means that I'll be using it only when I can enjoy the added flavor, not for cooking more highly-seasoned dishes, and probably not fir baking.

Oil Try It
Tried Milk Street Magazine's suggestion of scrambled eggs in oil using Carrington Farms Coconut & Avocado Blend. Happy with results, especially since I was able to use a healthy and affordable oil option.

Very impressed with the taste of this item.
I used just a few drops of this in a nonstick skillet to saute shrimp. The taste was excellent, no heavy grease taste.

A better alternative to vegetable oils.
This product has 2 very good oils in it. It did not have any overpowering coconut or avocado flavor. It worked very well for sauteeing vegetables and potatoes. Easy to use.

Good and Healthy
We like this product. I used it in salad dressing and to make avocado toast. It has a nice flavor taste very much like EVOO. I normally use EVOO in our avocado toast and nobody notice the difference. It is a bit pricey though and hard to find. I know the health benefits of coconut and avocado so to blend them is a novel idea and I will definitely be incorporating this product in our daily diets.

Something worth trying
I've never used a coconut and avocado blend oil until now. I enjoyed the taste and texture of all food I used with it. I recommend others to try, especially for health benefits.

Great Product
This is a light oil that I used for making a stir fry. I was worried that it would smoke too much, but it worked out great.

Tasted good
I liked the way it tasted and how it stayed liquid but I had to use more than I expected to.

Amazing!
This exceeded my expectations. I was used to my coconut oil and with the added avocado mix, it turned out great. It is just as mild and wonderful taste as coconut oil but with the added benefits of the avocado. I love using this with my eggs!

Nice, mellow tasting cooking oil
I enjoyed using the Carrington Farms Coconut & Avocado Blend cooking oil; it has a nice, mellow flavor that is not overpowering; it states that it is a natural energy source so this is a good thing; it was a bit spendy at $7.88 for 16 fluid ounces, but may be well worth it; I used it to reheat some chicken fried rice I had and I fried an egg with it--delicious.
