    photo83454.jpg Every time I go to a restaurant I see these coffee creamers.

    It says they're half and half.

    If you put two of them in your coffee, does that make it whole milk?
     
    Isn't whole milk something like 12% cream?
    Doesn't the cream belong with the cream?
    Would we then end up with skim milk?
    If that's true then we need a different formula to obtain a correct answer.
    My head hurts and I need a coffee.
    Black please....
     
    What is sold as "whole milk" is usually around 3 - 3.5% fat, heavy whipping cream is somewhere in the 30 - 40% depending on whether it's being sold as "light" "extra heavy" or just deviation between brands and quality. I used to get it around 43% and mix that with my whole milk to give it some ass on my cereal or in my protein shakes. Half and half tastes great just as it is in a glass. Skim "milk" is like 1%, I've never understood the fucking point of that, whole milk is basically diet food already.
     
    I think you're really letting this whole thing about your wife outshooting you get to you. Coffee creamers? If you don't get ahold of yourself and fast, next thing you know you'll find yourself sitting on the couch wearing a snuggie and watching Days of Our Lives.
     
    I was gonna go today but after reading the map, I got scared. I mean, low tide smell, polluted water, manatees and worst of all, dinner cruises...
    Seriously though it is a perfect day for it, I ended up putting some shelves in the garage instead.
    Lunch with Rebecca tomorrow and golf with my brother and nephew on Thursday. That leaves Friday

    My chick thinks I'm weird for drinking half & half straight up.. once again tho great minds think alike hah
     
    I never did get into this coffee thing.
    When I was young my Mother always told us that we couldn't have coffee until we grew up. I guess I never grew up.
    I have been around others, including My Squaw, that the sun is not up until they get that coffee rush.
    Fuck that, I would rather have a beer, and for breakfast, mix it with corn flakes or Sugar Pops.
    The answer to the question is no matter how much shit you pour in, it will always have that horrible bitter taste.
    The base of the drink is always there no matter what you do to disguise it. FM

    Im inot a good cup but when I hear;


    double chocolate frappachino with 3 squits of caramel, whiped cream, latte, add kitchen sink.

    I wonder "Why call it coffee." Maybe you'd like that, FM.
     
    I think this is a question in the common core standards. As for half and half, I have no use for it. Now heavy cream, that is the good stuff. I love making whipped cream from it (along with confectioners sugar and a touch of vanilla) to top whatever dessert my wife is baking up. Just keep it the fuck away from my coffee.

    I work with a highly sensitive hipster who cannot seem to get enough half and half into his coffee, and begs to be fucked with. When I happen to meet him at the coffee station I stare at him blankly and barely manage to resist barking:

    Put that coffee down! Coffee's for closers only. You think I'm fucking with you? I am not fucking with you. I'm here from downtown. I'm here from Mitch and Murray. And I'm here on a mission of mercy.
     
    I watched my Squaw get out of the bunk this morning and the first thing she did, and does every morning, was push the button on the coffee maker.
    It makes horrible noises, as I tried to sleep, and filled the air with an aroma that I would trade a Dog fart for, those smell much better.
    As soon as there was some of that vile liquid in the pot she put it in a cup and sucked it down, replaced the pot waiting for more.
    More soon came and she then mixed in weird shit to make it better, I guess? It makes her happy so I don't fuck with that as when she doesn't have her "poison" fix she is more of a bitch to get along with.
    It is an addiction to a legal drug that I am happy I don't deal with. Give me Post Toastie and beer any day if I need a rush.
    I don't deal with either.
    I have watched coffee drinkers all of my life and wondered why they did it? Not for me but I do have bad habits. but they are much easier to deal with.
    So for you Coffee drinkers, whatever floats your boat but don't look down on others that have some kind of addiction be it whatever but I would bet they are buying Coffee too.
    Merry Christmas to all and a good night. FM
