How long do Thai Coconuts keep?

I have two Thai coconuts that are slightly firm to the outside, a nice white in color, and have lots of water inside when I shake them. I got them yesterday from Whole Foods, and normally they only have like 5 or so…but there was practically a basket full. So I am assuming that they just got in a shipment.

Last time mine was moldy on the inside.

How long do you think these will keep before going bad??

    I don’t know but im afraid to keep mine more than a few days. I bought 3 on friday from whole foods, opened two and froze the meat and juice separately (you could also blend together and freeze) and then I opened the last one on Sunday night and it was perfect, lots of water and the meat was all white and thick. The ones I opened Friday night were very gel like.

    Oh and one time I kept the coconut a little over a week and it went bad. You could always just keep checking them daily I guess.

    For the past year, I have been buying the coconuts by the case every three weeks. There are nine to a case. I store them in my natural walk in cooler (my garage) which is around 30 degrees this time of year.

    I figure by the time I pick these up at the food terminal, they are probably a week or two old.

    In all the time I have been purchasing my coconuts, I have never had a bad one. Not one.
