Non-Dairy Creamer, or Half and Half?

Publish date: 2024-06-04

Fellow obese prostitution whores, what’s worse — NDC or half and half?

Which one is worse for your health?

Which one tastes better?

Which would you use???

Best is heavy whipping cream. You only need a little and it has zero sugar, unlike the others.

I love Carnation half and half. It ruined me for anything else. If it isn't available I will not have my coffee.

What is so special about carnation half and half?

Both creamer and half and half typically have 20 calories per tablespoon. But creamer is some processed frakenfood, so I would go with half and half.

Of course, you could just learn to enjoy coffee black.

Get dairy 1/2 and 1/2, not that crap fake stuff with all kinds of sugars and emulsifiers, etc. Plus it tastes better IMO.

I can use either but tend to buy flavored non dairy creamer, that way I can just use a little and not add sugar.

This whole thread is so American. Nowhere else in the world are either of these items an option.

That is true r7. I remember one of my trips through Europe a friend was asking for half and half before they quickly realized that only exists stateside.

A splash of half and half no sugar please.

It's good ol' heavy whipping cream or nothing for me.

Non dairy creamers always taste watery anyway. I just use 2 percent milk.

Read which one has corn syrup or sugar in it, then not that one.

Half and Half - regular. I've seen Nonfat Half and Half and I can't even imagine how it tastes. No sugar.

[quote] I just use 2 percent milk.

It looks and tastes like water with white dye in it.

There's no point in putting 2% or skim milk in your coffee unless you just want to water it down. Non-dairy creamer is awful; read the ingredients sometime.

Half and half or heavy cream (just a teaspoon, because it's very potent).

Sometimes I have coffee with my neighbor. She likes to use Great Value sugar free French vanilla powdered creamer. It tastes like a potpourri bomb.

My best friend uses that powdered French Vanilla powder, but he cuts it by mixing 1/2 French Vanilla creamer with 1/2 regular non flavored creamer. Ive been trying for years to get him to start using whipping cream & one of the FV coffee syrups. I've used those before and they're quite nice, in moderation. But he's stuck on that powdered crap.

I always keep a quart of heavy cream in the refrigerator. But I don't drink coffee, so there's that.

The cream is typically for soups.

Have you seen Lewis Black on the subject of oat milk, R22? ;)

I used to use half and half. Then when I had to start watching my weight and cholesterol, I switched to nonfat milk, heated and whipped with a frother.

I do not lighten coffee.

I presume this practice is favored by churls, cretins, and randos?

Heavy cream.

It’s like a meal replacement.

While shopping in a hurry I accidentally grabbed some fat-free half and half by mistake. It tasted vile. I tossed out the rest of it.

There's a difference amongst non-dairy creamers. Yes, some seem like Frankenfood. Others are just nut or oat milks.

I've been on a quest for a good non-dairy creamer. Alas, still using half 'n' half. (Tried the Oatly, too.)

Heavy cream leaves beads of oil or fat at the top. I prefer half 'n' half.

i'm not ashamed to admit it--I love non-dairy creamer. I hate the taste of dairy in my coffee.

Half and half or evaporated milk

Non dairy is nothing but chemicals.

by Anonymousreply 34February 24, 2021 8:12 PM

non dairy is full of chemicals, dairy is also bad for you and bad for the planet? so what to do???

I use vanilla oatmilk creamer lol

I don't like non-dairy, seems processed. Half and half is ok but I'm lactose intolerant!

by Anonymousreply 37February 24, 2021 8:19 PM

I also use oat milk. It’s the only non dairy option that tastes good to me in coffee.

Go with the half and half, is what I'd do. I'm certainly not going to choose the stuff that's nothing but chemicals because of some vague assertion that "dairy is bad for you."
