You can eat. Although the coconut has sprouted inside, it is still edible. After germination, coconut still contains a small amount of coconut water. Remove the coconut shell, knock it open and take out the coconut treasure inside. It looks like this. The coconut meat inside is very white, just like a sponge soaked with water. It is fluffy and tastes a little sweet. This kind of coconut that has sprouted but the roots in the coconut have not yet grown out is called "Coconut Treasure". "Coconut Treasure" is actually a mature coconut with a seed in it. The germination of coconut shows that the seeds in coconut are getting bigger and bigger, so the coconut treasure we eat is formed. It's hard to buy this kind of coconut baby in the market. Extended data:

Speaking of coconuts, the most familiar scene is to drill a hole to drink coconut water through a straw and then throw it away. Lee Hyo Ri, a national second-class nutritionist, said that coconuts are treasures. Let's peel them off layer by layer and see what is good. Coconut shell: Coconut shell is hard in texture and is mainly used for making various handicrafts. In the south, some people also eat coconut shell stew rice, which tastes good. Coconut meat: peeled coconut shell is coconut meat, white as jade, crisp and delicious. Coconut meat contains many essential nutrients, such as protein, minerals and vitamins. Can be eaten directly, and can be used for cooking, oil extraction, juice extraction or canned coconut milk, coconut, shredded coconut, coconut sugar and coconut. Coconut oil: Many people abroad eat coconut oil. It is a kind of vegetable oil from coconut pulp, which is mainly composed of saturated fatty acids. It is ok to moisturize the skin for external use. If it is to lose weight, saturated fat is mainly for the human body. If you eat coconut oil, you won't reduce the amount of other foods. Using it to lose weight is actually a bit unreliable. Coconut juice: The small canned coconut juice we usually see in the supermarket is the juice squeezed from the white coconut pulp closest to the mature coconut shell, which is generally milky white, while the coconut we buy directly sucks coconut juice, which is clear as water, quite sweet, produces fluid to relieve summer heat, cools and quenches thirst, and has a slightly sticky feeling. Coconut water can promote the blood circulation of the kidneys, promote diuresis and reduce swelling, so coconut water and coconut water are not the same thing. Generally speaking, the coconut fiber of old coconut is heavier, but the coconut juice is sweeter, and the taste of tender coconut meat will be much better, but the coconut juice will feel a little astringent. Coconut: Another kind related to coconut is the coconut in the dessert shop. In fact, coconuts are not directly produced, but are fermented with coconut water. The production process is to ferment the sugar bacteria in coconut juice, and the substances produced accumulate more and more, forming a thick layer of white material, and then processing it into the coconut in the dessert shop.
