Is this extra virgin and organic?

Don't know if it's organic.. I'm pretty sure it's extra virgin. It's very red and thick, but melts very easily like coconut oil. The refined palm oil is clear and not "earthy" like this oil. I hold my nose and take it and chase it with OJ.

it's organic, but let me warn you, it taste awful. I guess if you can use it as a cooking oil you'll do better, but the taste is still there. Warning, this stuff is nasty.

All that the bottle says is "100% pure unrefined red palm oil. Direct from the heart of west Africa." Hope this helps you

This one is not, it is natural. Their organic coconut milk will say "organic" where this one says natural

I buy this brand because the only ingredient is coconut. There are no "fraken-foods" ingredients such as guar gums, carragean, etc. In addition, the cans are bpa free. Organic means no pesticides. If you have non organic without artifical ingredients you should be in pretty good shape.

As you say, it does not say it is organic on the product. It only says that it is 100% pure.

I don't believe so. If it doesn't say organic on the label, it probably isn't. I ordered this quite a while back before I started eating all organic foods.

Yes its raw, unprocessed, organic. It is not from one type of flower. That is monoculture farming and not a practice of most organic farms.

It does not say anything about being organic on the label. Have a great day and God Bless you!!

Not sure if it's organic. I'm going to say no, but not 100% sure. Google it.

I'm not sure. It doesn't say anything about it being certified organic on the bottle.

I just double checked the package and NO WHERE does it say organic. I have to assume then that it is just natural.

No, not at all. It is simply composed of the ground husks. The product is just fine, although, next time I will probably order the "organic" version. :-)

No. I don't believe it is organic. My reason for purchase was to get away from BPA cans. This was just the ticket. The price was reasonable and they taste delicious. I am getting ready to order my nest case.

I'm confused...if it's free of all of 'the above' then why is it not 'organic' as stated in another answer to a question?

I emailed Nutiva directly. Here is their response: "We are now labeling all of our coconut oil as virgin coconut oil. It is still the same high quality, organic coconut oil that we have always sold. Some countries, like Canada, do not allow the use of the term extra virgin to describe coconut oil. As we expand into other markets around the world it was thought best to use the term virgin coconut oil across our entire line instead of using different terms for the exact same product in different countries. We haven't changed the quality of our coconut oil, only our label. There is no difference between virgin and extra virgin coconut oil. They are both marketing terms with no definition in law or regulations. Unlike olive oil which has multiple pressings, organic coconut oil has just one pressing. Our coconut oil is the same product as before, but we are using a different marketing term on the label." It would be nice if the sellers of this product would let consumers know about this, as Nutiva says they've asked all of their retailers to inform their customers. This knowledge would have saved me much time and hassle.

I do not believe it is organic. I think it's more important for me that's unfiltered and unpasteurized. Contains all the good stuff that way.

Yes, it is organic and all plant material. I use this product every morning in my smoothie and love it. Vanilla is best. It fits my diet perfectly giving me needed protein each morning.:-)
