"No-Fat Cream" ??

Took a close look today, at Fat-Free Half & Half. I love my coffee, more than is good for me, and like it even more with a dash of half & half, a favorite ingredient of my Mother's cooking. Of course, "Oleo" was out of bounds at our house, so I can only imagine what her reaction would have been to this!

Ingredients? "fat free milk, milk (adds a trivial amount of fat), corn syrup..........."

While my wife & I try to limit our fat intake, this product would be "pushing" the envelope! imp

Imp, I am a philistine who drinks fat free liquid coffee creamer with my coffee. Yeeees, I know. But the battle of the bulge takes precedence, and otherwise I eat healthy foods.

What are it's ingredients? My nephew, paranoid as he is, questions the table-waiter in restaurants regarding what are the ingredients in their individually-wrapped little "coffee creamers". Invariably, their answer is, "Sir, coffee cream"!

This, you are not. (I think). Forgive me for going to such lengths, I knew not what the word meant, though have heard it all my life!) imp
