But you would have to account for moisture content as well, unsweetened coconut is far dryer than sweetened. ~Kat www.marchforchoice.org

According to <http://www.practicalpantry.com/staples/page17.html> "Do not use sweetened and unsweetened coconut interchangeably. To remove sugar from sweetened coconut, soak it in a mixture of half milk and half water for an hour or two in the refrigerator. Drain well and pat dry." -- to respond, change "spamless.invalid" with "optonline.net" please mail OT responses only
