How is the yogurt after microwaving?

Everyone is hating on this guy. I think he's hilarious. I mean, he's no Gordon Ramsey, but the recipe is solid and he's fun to watch.

Where is everyone getting these to go containers?

TL;DW - Coconut oil!

Thanks! I've been lurking here for awhile, but never actually got around to doing any actual meal prep.

Anyway, somehow these videos make the concept seem a whole lot more accessible.

Unlike a lot of people in this thread, I really enjoyed watching this. One suggestion: talk a little bit more the why. Like why did he put coconut oil in with the rice? Talk about what purpose the ingredients serve in the recipe.
