Dubbed ‘Mother Nature’s Sports Drink’, natural organic coconut water is not just a passing health-food craze.

A glass of pure coconut water is super hydrating thanks to its naturally occurring electrolytes, has far less calories than a commercial sports drink, is naturally fat and cholesterol free, and has more potassium than four regular bananas!

There are many coconut water brands on the supermarket shelves today, but not all are created equal. Many are loaded with sugar and added preservatives.

Vita Coco has recently made an appearance in UAE grocery aisles, and given the brand’s celebrity following, I am sure their drinks will be quite the rave here too.

Mr. Toyoaki Yoneda is a distributor of the highly prized Japanese Wagyu beef. I raved about it in my previous post on the Japanese Food Exhibition, and today Mr. Toyoaki gives us more of an insight into why Japanese Wagyu is so sought-after, and how it is cooked traditionally.
