Hello everyone.
Someone here mentioned using coconut oil as lube, so I started looking around. I figured anything was better than the lube I was using, because it had glycerin in it.
I ordered some off Amazon(not organic or anything because I'm broke)and it said 100% coconut oil. But when it came in the mail and I read the back, it says external use only. Does coconut oil have to be organic and extra virgin if I'm going to use it as lube? Why else would there be a disclaimer on the back?
Sorry if I sound all paranoid, I've had some bad experiences with lube.

I realize there's no literal connection, I was just thinking as someone who gets very anxious about things like this.
But probably a licensing/inspection issue, yes.
