Nice moniker. Good blog. I am a guy. I like coconut as a stand-alone flavor (macaroons, coconut cake, coconut ice cream, those chunks of raw coconut that they used to sell, & perhaps still do, on the streets in Paris). Mix coconut in with other things, though - granolas particularly come to mind - and I usually dislike the whole mixture. I suspect that, with the coconut chocolate pecan drops, I would leave out the coconut & love the result. Wandered over here from eGullet. Nice moniker. Good blog.

I have the same theory (which I realize is wrong, but still stick to) about rootbeer. Boys like it, girls not so much.

I loathe it in candies, will eat it in curries but don't want the taste to be overwhelming. Still, it's more the texture thing. I, female, am not fond of coconut.
