I think Lopez is probably the largest selling Coconut Creme in the country and, so, moves fast. It's possible, too, that the company has superior Quality Control. I've checked the ingredients on several brands, though (Goya included), and have had enough fresh cans of all of them to realize that All Coconut Cream is made with the same disgusting stuff (W. Park Kerr stole a line from Bob Goldthwait when he described it as having "more artificial ingredients than a car battery"). I'd suggest trying others and sticking to Freddie's advice on returning any rancid product.
The Trader Vic's stuff is Great (especially since it comes in a Bottle) but is rather difficult to come by compared to, like, ANY OTHER BRAND IN THE U.S.A., so...
