There are some bloggers that really have no clue! It happens when you learn from making up your own techniques or imagining on things for your own, such as this blogger: http://www.rawmazing.com/raw-food-all-about-young-coconuts

The link ‘rawmazing’ is not the way to do it because the fresh young Thai coconut is opened very easily by taking a sharp knife, or a cleaver and inserting in into the top of the coconut’s flesh, then turning it easily, gently, and without any mess or stress. You do not need to hack it apart.
