Nothing wrong with copra Tracy,
Its dried coconut meat. Passing water through desiccated coconut and
pressing it out is the only way I know of to obtain coconut milk.
Coconut milk is the next best thing to coconut oil, as it contains up
to 20% (by memory) oil, assuming its a good brand. If it goes hard in
the fridge it probably contains appreciable amounts of oil.
