Pile of coconuts



The guy up the street from us does a great business in coconut water. At most places, including this one, they give you a pretty generous plastic bag full of juice and coconut slivers. Some places will stick a straw right in the coconut, and you scoop the flesh out yourself. Allegedly coconut water is very good for you, although for all I know that's propaganda spread by the Indonesian Coconut Sellers Association!

Ya, they say if you drink too much of the juice too fast, you can pass out. Like wheatgrass.
