I don't think it's the same, I ordered and got the same as you, but the first time I ordered I got extra Virginand I like it and the smell and taste so much better,it costs more but I feel like it's worth it.Hope this helps.

The way I understand those markings is? extra virgin is the first pressing of the product, and virgin is the second pressing. There is never anything extra added. Think of apples going into a huge juicer.....1st pressing(extra virgin). Now take all the squished up stuff and run it through the juicer again, and that is your virgin. I hope that this helps clear it up.

Yes it's the same virgin coconut oil. The words ( extra) doesn't mean it have anythiing extra in it its yhe same thing.

No. That's not the same. Extra virgin is first press. Anything after that is less in quality. It all depends what you use the oil for...

I was just wondering the same thing. The last container I ordered was a lighter colored pink. The one I have now is bright pink. Does anyone know if or why they changed the color?

Mine was in the exact bottle pictured. I suggest you call/email the company and ask if they have changed the packaging.

No it's not. It looks similar but the flavor is definitely more coconutty and not oily.

I do not know. It is organic red palm oil that is certified organic by the USDA and is NONGMO verified, but does not say anything about being extra virgin.

Because it is not Organic Raw extra Virgin Coconut oil. This is just pure 100% coconut oil. Like there is Olive oil, then there is extra virgin olive oil. Some are better than others.

The ones in the blue box taste better IMO. The White box ones says "pure " olive oil , it doesnt say extra virgin anywhere, at least not on any of my boxes. The white box is certified NON GMO. Not sure how many GMO sardines are swimming around out there but in any case, if that is important to you than the white box is better for you. THe blue box has a more pronounced sardine flavor, the white box tastes lighter to me

Solvent, rather than cold pressing is generally used for regular, non-virgin coconut oil, but the solvent is washed out via filtering. This coconut oil is food-safe and also suitable for cosmetics and so on. I recently made 4 batches of homemade soaps that are all or mostly coconut oil. The oil is white without any noticeable odor. I would not expect it to have the faint coconutty odor of virgin, or extra virgin coconut oil. Perhaps the yellow version, colored with annatto seed, was sent instead?

My order was a bit confused. I have been ill and was in the middle of a cross country move so I just let the mixup go. I got 1-8 oz of the neem oil which did have a date on the tape securing that the bottle was still sealed. It was in a taller grey opaque bottle. It's now gone but it was in a good date range. I also got this 4 oz bottle. It seems to be a darker oil than the 8 oz. I used all the larger bottle. I am fighting a dermatitus that has been going on for a year (since I moved to the apartment that I am now moving away from) The Dr's couldn't seem to help me so I was trying natural remedies. It has been nightmare x 4. I suspect mites but of course that can't be in the continental US, I say sarcastically... even as we now have ebola floating around, lol Anyway...sorry for the digression, it has been a rough road. This smaller possibly darker color, 4oz bottle does not have an expiration date labeled.

Mine looked more like a flower to me. Actually, I found the bottle unacceptable, as if the oil hardended, it was time consuming to warm it up to a more liquid state. Perhaps yours has a chunck of coconut shell???

No, mine came fine and new (sealed). You should send it back for exchange or refund. don't wait! I like this oil, the taste is not as strong as say extra virgin coconut oil.
