Is Coconut Oil just a Bunch of Hype?

I think that coconut oil in a lot of ways is just a huge fad, but it's useful for about half of the claims. I had read that it was supposed to be good for dry feet so I tried it out this summer when I was wearing sandals a lot. I've also tried olive oil for this and I felt the results were really similar, but I own a lot of coconut oil compared to olive oil so I've been using that instead. I haven't experienced the miraculous results that a lot of sites claim; it's been one of the least effective uses so far. Coconut oil isn't the solution to everything but it can be practical.
