Quoted:
Always, always, always check your fresh coconut carefully for the presence of pink mold. That shit tastes NASTY as hell. This discoloration is more likely to happen the longer you keep the coconut and especially if it is not refrigerated.
At first thought you might think that it is mold or bacteria, but it is not. It is a natural chemical process caused by the oxidation of sugars in the coconut. When these sugars are exposed to oxygen they turn pink. |
