[...] yoga was the coco culprit. Perhaps we didn’t know quite how powerful it was though, until Coca Cola snagged a 20% stake in Zico a couple of years ago. More yoga (a billion dollar biz worldwide, mind you) equals more coconut [...]

I tried to post a photo of a coconut (colorfully decorated like a kiddie art project) sent to a friend by US Post. But comments don’t allow .jpg files so I’ll send it by email.

Strange but true…

Yoga Spy, who would have thought you could just mail a coconut! I find that very amusing.

You’re not putting us on, are you? It’s on the verge of sounding like something out of YogaDawg.

I’m a purist. When thirsty, nothing can replace plain, simple H2O. So I’ll leave the coconut-water trend for others to debate (and the coco water for others to chug).

I do have a coconut piece of trivia, however: You can mail a whole, unhusked coconut by US Post. Paint pictures on it and then slap on a mailing label. It goes through the mail like any other parcel. So, next time you’re in Hawaii, surprise your friends (or foes) with something beyond a same-old postcard of Waikiki…

Yeah, I view this like the Yoga boom itself. The fact that it’s becoming so mainstream is upsetting to some people, but I think it a sign of development in overall health thinking, like you wrote above.
