Balanced Diet

A first-of-its-kind product, Earth Balance Organic Coconut Spread is a convenient way to incorporate coconut oil into one’s diet. The soy-free, vegan product is made from a similar formula to that of Earth Balance’s buttery spread, with organic extra-virgin coconut oil replacing the soybean oil, and can be used instead of butter for baking, cooking, or topping toast, steamed vegetables and more. Featuring only 5 grams of saturated fat vs. the 14 grams present in extra-virgin coconut oil, the spread is USDA Certified Organic, verified by the Non-GMO Project and more affordable than shelf-stable coconut oil, according to Niwot, Colo.-based Earth Balance. A 12-ounce tub retails for a suggested $4.99. For more information, visit www.EarthBalanceNatural.com.
