Coconuts are very popular there. This has to be one of the top 5 growers of cocunuts in the world, if not one of the top 3.

In the rough they sell for 10-15 php ($.20-25) each. They are popular for their juice and I've seen people collect it from them to cool in the fridge and drink.

I've not tried it unrefined so I cant comment on the taste.

Beer is cheaper by the liter so why bother?

Most of them just pile them up in the street with a bike and sell them.

Not something you'd see in the US, but common here.
