[Title] => Producers ask BFAD to grade VCO based on manufacturing practice
[Summary] => Virgin coconut oil (VCO) producers are asking the Bureau of Food and Drugs (BFAD) to categorize or grade the commodity based on manufacturing practices to give consumers more informed choices.
"The BFAD has set the temperature for manufacturing or processing VCO at no more than 40 degrees centigrade. That is a good compromise but it does not capture the essence of what consists pure virgin coconut oil," said Paolo Mamangun Jr., former president of the Virgin Coconut Oil Producers and Traders Association of the Philippines (VCOPTAP).
