    I use this for nutrient purpose only though it is good for skin or hair as well. It delivers high dose of vitamin A and superior qualities of vitamin E. And other nutrients as well as low in saturated fats. I eat cold spoon from the fridge with a splash of balsamic vinegar it’s a crave taste.👍

    When I purchased this product, I was not sure what to expect. I heard it was good in coffee and on meats so I figured that I would give it a try. While what I heard was correct, I cannot get over how messy this stuff is! It has stained my shirts, my dishes, my counter, my hands and pretty much anything else it touches.

    That being said, this red palm oil is sourced humanely and is very nutritious. I have found no red palm oil of a higher quality than this one. So, if you are accustomed to dealing with red palm oil, then this is the product for you. If you are just looking to try a new flavor, I would not recommend this particular product. It is ALOT of palm oil and the taste gets old kind of quickly in my opinion.

    It is a good palm oil. It has good flavor compared to what I’ve tried before. But it does contain some micro black particles that it would need to be refined more. Only reason why dropped a star.

    I have a Quaker with a dry skin problem. Added this to food and he’s good as new. Great product I understand for other things too

    I love eating “red red” so I am always excited when I come across good palm oil. This palm oil is really good. I would recommend it.

    This is the best red palm oil that I have had outside of Africa where it is pressed fresh.
    Very flavourful and nutritious. Adds an extra layer of flavour to soups and stews.
    Even my dog loves this oil. I give him 1Tsp of oil in his kibble. His fur and skin has never been better with less shedding as a bonus.
    Get the largest size for best value

    If one uses this to fry then your whole house will have a terrible smell for hours from the melted palm oil. Eating it out of the jar is not great either as I could not stand the taste and it almost gave me a sore throat. I ended up after just one usage throwing out the whole bottle.

    Excellent source of vitamin e which is why I buy it. The 2 best quality are this one and Healthy Traditions.

    I love the taste. It is very thick and has a deep red color, unlike the Ola Ola Carotino I purchased from Whole Foods. The Ola Ola label states it a ‘cooking oil’, this is also an oil, but the two are very different. This looks like tomato paste very thick also looks exactly like what was shown on Dr. Oz, it will stand up to the spoon test and not run. I gave it 4 stars only because no where on the label does it state it’s organic, but in the description above it says it is, and it’s in a plastic container, I would have prefer glass. I squeezed the palm oil into a glass container, this way it’s a lot easier to get out. Others have said to heat the bottle in warm water, but I don’t think it’s safe to heat plastic.

    Edit: I was running low and placed another order. In the meantime I’d see that Whole Foods is carring another brand of red palm oil, ‘Alaffia Authentic West African Red Palm Oil’. So I decided I’d try it. Comparing the two-the Juka’s is a very deep red, while the Alaffia is more of an orange color. The taste was very simular, but the Juka’s seemed more flavorful. Plus I paid about $9.00 for 5oz. jar of Alaffia, what was I thinking?? So for me I’m not looking else where, this is going to be the red palm oil I will buy. I updated the rating to 5 stars because I was on Juka’s web site and she says her palm oil is organic and also what I like is harvesting does not destroy the rain forest. Try it, it’s amazing in stews, soups. I also sauted eggs which were very good. It has a spicy taste.
    Here is what is stated on the website:

    It has a smokey flavor that goes well with meats, esp Chicken. Great with Mexican, Indian, and spicy/meaty dishes. Incredible health benefits… if you want to live a long and healthy life, add a TBSP of this to your daily arsenal.

    I actually use this product for my birds and mix a spoon with their bird seed. It’s rich in nutrients and they love the taste. I have also used another jar in cooking and it definitely adds a lot of flavour to soups , stews . I really like this product and have bought it a few times.

    Price: $14.92 for 16.9-ounces

    While the more popular use of ‘palm oil’ here in the US is for skin care, in Brazil, it’s known for the unique and delicious flavor and color it imparts to two dishes; Moqueca de Camarao (shrimp stew) and Moqueca de Peixe (fish stew). These are two popular stews share this sauce that is known for its unique flavor and finished pale yellow color after adding your coconut milk. In Brazil palm oil is called ‘Azeite or Oleo de Dende’ (oil of palm).

    To bring this home, we’re an American-Brazilian family. And both my wife and I cook. So in preparing for a large lunch at our home for a number of friends, we’re featuring Brazilian Bacalhau (cod fish stew, not with red palm oil), and as an additional entrée, Moqueca de Camarao, shrimp stew. However, we didn’t have any Red Palm Oil in our pantry. While our local Brasilian Mercado had one brand, I wasn’t sure it would be a ‘best choice.’ The highest quality palm oils I know of come from West Africa and are not blended with other oils. And yes, West Africa is the point of origin for Juka’s brand.

    Because we’d not prepared this dish and the sauce before, I decided to watch a number of online videos. , but not seeing any direct brand recommendations, I search for and finally found one Brasilian chef who used a very similar oil. But refining my search in Amazon, I settled on Juka’s Organic. When my container of Juka’s palm oil arrived, it came in a glass container, not plastic, and was well sealed with an outer clear plastic bag. I experienced no leaks or any damage.

    I go into more detail about the oil and how I used it in my video review. In summary, this ‘first time venture’ using Red Palm Oil was successful. Juka’s brand performed as expected and I now have the confidence level in using Juka’s Organic as it was also recommended by a family friend who’s a Brazilian chef and has national television exposure on a major food network. So with her input and my success with Juka’s palm oil, I feel comfortable recommending it for its use in cooking. And most certainly would recommend it for African-Brazilian cuisine.
