Coconut oil will fix that

Coconut oil seems to have inherited duct tape's mantle as this century's most beloved and multi-talented product. This unassuming but suddenly ubiquitous spread can apparently solve any problem you place in front of it.

How many things can you really do with coconut oil? Here are just a few.

Improve your complexion

The unique combination of fatty acids in each container of coconut oil enables it to penetrate deep into your pores and moisturize the heart of each cell. Put it on before bed and you'll wake up glowing without being greasy!

Repair a dent in your car

If you use a plunger and a decent-sized helping of coconut oil, any superficial dent can be popped out of the body of your vehicle quickly and efficiently, getting it to look just like new again.

The plunger is doing most if not all of the work here, but look, you bought all this coconut oil, right? So might as well use it. In my opinion, anyway.

Have coconut oil in your house

Have you been trying to find ways to have coconut oil around because your friends are always talking about coconut oil and then asking where your coconut oil is? There's one thing guaranteed to resolve that issue: a nice, hefty jar of coconut oil.

Fix the longstanding trade difficulties between Australia and Indonesia

This fraught economic situation has long been thought to be caused by a lack of standardized regulations in the South Pacific, but has anybody tried coconut oil?

Coconut oil seems great for stuff. My cousin has added it to his toothpaste every day for a year and he says it's worked wonders. He has dentures so I'm not sure what that means, plus there's already the toothpaste which has traditionally been great for taking care of teeth so it's possible it's doing the bulk of the work there, but still.

As such, I think that presidents Warren and Lesmono may be able to resolve their difficulties simply by using a bit of the creamy cure-all.

Write an article

Not sure what to write an article about? Try coconut oil, you're sure to get at least one story out of it. I can personally guarantee it!
