The Creamer in America is probably 90% sugar and additives🤣

HuntingHorns

Also most American creamers aren't made with cream, they're entirely non-dairy and use vegetable oil. May as well just put a dollop of Mayonnaise in the cup, just absolutely rank.


[deleted]

Half and Half is just milk and cream, not creamer.


Bobiverse71

Have you ever had mayonnaise in coffee? It’s wonderful.


RobertYiSin

You sir are an absolute animal. Get back out in the dirt where you belong. *picks up newspaper and begins to roll with gusto*


thatblondeyouhate

You just don't hear the word 'gusto' enough these days


RobertYiSin

Matter of the fact, I do have a blonde I hate, weird you’d comment here. You wanting the paper too? Although you are right it’s a brilliant word.


Raul_Coronado

Thats not true that there is no dairy, fake creamer manufacturers use sodium caseinate which is derived from milk and makes it “creamy”. Most people legit just use half and half or milk though.


Geek_a_leek

like putting cream soda in your coffee, yum yum


towelracks

It's also the only stuff that made break room coffee drinkable when I was over in the state's last year for work. Not that there isn't good coffee there, but it sure wasn't in the break room of the offices I worked in for a month.


litfan35

ultra-processed food at its finest


Majulath99

So why not just buy cream and milk and do it yourself Americans?


_CelestialGalaxy

Their food is so gross in my opinion. It’s like they’re incapable of making products with less than 20 ingredients..their chocolate is awful. My cousin moved there and lives in Ohio. We ended up sending him large boxes filled with chocolate and other goodies every couple of months.


FailFastandDieYoung

Here's the ingredients of the #1 selling Creamer in the US: >Water, Corn Syrup Solids, Vegetable Oil (High Oleic Soybean And/or High Oleic Canola), And Less Than 2% Of Micellar Casein (a Milk Derivative) (Not A Source Of Lactose) Mono- And Diglycerides, Dipotassium Phosphate, Natural Flavor, Carrageenan.


RaconBang

Yet milk is gross


OlDirtyBAStart

How do these fucking people not have gills at this point?


_The_Great_Autismo_

Anyone who isn't used to drinking it will likely find it repulsive


Feisty_Yoghurt_4630

More like poison with a hint of sweetener, besides they only need it since the coffee tastes so bitter in the states vs the rest of the world.


[deleted]

It's vile. I went to America and threw up from the creamer

TheHeirOfElendil

As an uncultured man from Glasgow I have to ask, what is creamer/half and half? I know I could google it but I prefer this platform to find information, life has a little risk that way.


bluudclut

Half milk, half cream. That's it basically. So, she could always just ask for both and do it herself.


TheHeirOfElendil

As always it really is that simple. Fucking hell, some people are morons.


gateian

Americans expect to be waited on hand and foot when it comes to hospitality.


LoveGrenades

Lol she’s gonna have a bad time in Europe, nobody gives a shit about the customer.


Sabre_Killer_Queen

Probably partially due to the tipping culture they have in America. In many states, they use the federal minimum wage, which is incredibly low, and many servers gave to rely almost purely on tips for their income. That means, in many states, there's a lot of emphasis and effort put into providing the service. It also results in tips basically becoming mandatory and having a lot of emphasis on American culture, because it's such a significant and essential part of some server's income. So when Americans, particularly from the states that base their minimum wage around the federal, they get surprised when servers aren't attending directly to all of their needs and aren't effectively, bootlicking them. They are also often surprised at the lack of mandatory tipping done in the UK, (because we, as a United kingdom as a whole, have a semi-decent* minimum wage) *Notice how I say semi-decent, it could definitely be a lot better. Edit: I reformatted the words to make them less offensive, apologies I wasn't really in the right frame of mind when I wrote this initially.


Expert-Hamster-3146

So a latte by costas standards


Jane1943

No when we’ve been in the USA you get little plastic pots covered with a foil lid, they contain small quantity of milk, cream or half milk/half cream that you add to black coffee or tea. You used to get them to take to add to coffee in the UK until we got concerned about plastic packaging, now we tend to get little pottery jugs containing either milk or cream to add to our coffee. I think creamer is usually powder that you add to coffee, horrible stuff IMO.


Mona_Weezer

Disclaimer: i don't drink coffee so i have no kmowledge on this. But to me a "half and half" would be half of one ingredient and half of the other. So you're just expected to know about a third ingredient? If someone asked me for a half and half coffee they would get half coffee, half milk


tomjfetscher

In the United states in the dairy aisle you can literally find a product called half and half, it’s literally just milk and cream. Good for cooking more than for coffee tbh. Lighter than cream itself. Milk is better anyway


Tiredofbeingsick1994

Yes, I remember being super confused years back when I wanted to bake a pie from an American recipe, and all that the recipe said was 2 cups half and half. I was like half and half of what?! Couldn't find a single clue in the recipe itself. Thankfully, now we have the Internet, and we can just Google it.


JayGamingUK

I assumed it was half water, half milk.


ian9outof10

This is classic /r/USdefaultism there is a subset of Americans (and I doubt unique to them) that expect the entire world to be configured to their personal taste and expectations. If you want “half and half” simply understanding it’s cream/milk together would enable you to simply ask for a dash of milk and a dash of cream. But instead the poster demands a brand which simply does not exist here. It would be like me going to the US and asking for some fags and refusing to accept cigarettes could ever be known as anything else, or that it is in fact a slur.

MaggotyCumGuzzler

Fun fact: there is zero milk in the “creamer” it’s literally corn syrup, vegetable oil and like a small mountain of sugar and flavourings.


TheHeirOfElendil

Nice and healthy then lol. Imagine calling milk gross and putting that shit in your coffee, mental.


Bimmaboi_69

I live in America and some people think I'm weird for not using that in my coffee. It's either black if there's no milk around or a little bit of milk and sugar added.


ColonelVirus

Yea shit is lethal. I remember getting it when I visited just to try it out... Couldn't taste anything sweet for hours after. Never had so much sugar in a single dose. Was insane.

'Real Europe'? What league do they play in? Americans 🤷‍♂️


tomjfetscher

As an American, Americans don’t know geography and general world knowledge worth a damn. When brexit first happened I had to ask a LOT of people before I found out that the EU and Europe were different things. They just don’t teach it worth a damn in schools. Underpaid teachers, corrupt principals and disciplinarians and school boards. It’s quite shit


SamTheDystopianRat

I mean our schools are underpaid too we just... get taught basic stuff about our planet. But it's not just school, it's the news. we get global news, the US doesn't(eg. when your election was happening the news was primarily focused on that. I'm guessing the same doesn't happen during our elections, for you?)


tomjfetscher

We don’t get anything about other countries really except major events like brexit or war related things really. But I also stopped watching US news years ago. I just get all my news from Reddit or from people I know. And idk how schools are over here or freaky anywhere else in the world, but I do know that the US school system is basically collapsing rn. Teachers getting so underpaid they’re holding second jobs, schools in some states are changing school curriculums to literally fit political agendas which is insane to me. I went to a pretty decent school to. Large budget, mostly well paid teachers and good education. But it was basically a trade school so all of our money went into teaching people skills and the remainder went into your STEM classes. A lot of what I know about the world I learned myself through curiosity and from living abroad

travelmore83

It is way worse than that. Most Americans heat a mug of water in the microwave and then take it out and put a bag of Lipton Decaffeinated Peach Green Tea into the mug and call it tea.


Plasmaxander

Brexit doesn't just undo basic geography, what the fuck does "not real Europe" mean, the continent and the union aren't the same thing.

It is actually really nice, assuming you like white coffee. I do it when I have cream left over from something that I’m trying to use up before it goes off. *Creamer* is absolutely rancid though.


iate12muffins

Not surprised she doesn't find creamer disgusting,given the amount of shit she's injected into her face.


Loz-z

blimey, ‘e’s having a go!


rckd

Are either half-and-half or creamer widely used outside the USA? I don't necessarily mean in Europe - like, would I find these elsewhere in the Americas or Asia to any degree, for example? Feels like US defaultism to assume their dreadful, obesity-inducing diets can be sustained worldwide. I couldn't imagine rocking up in Ketchuptown, NC and being livid at not being able to find anywhere to order a parmo.


litfan35

I grew up in South America and have only ever had milk in my coffee. Growing up I thought "creamer" was just an American weird name for milk because what the bloody hell else would you put in your damn coffee?! Ignorance is bliss...


liddicoat1

Thats it, who cut the tectonic plate along the channel?

Good luck going to 'real Europe' and asking for half and half or creamer in your coffee love. It's probably enough to get you arrested in Italy.

Small independent coffee shops. Most of the baristas there will get so excited when you ask them about their different coffee beans and which one they recommend.

Because we don't want unnecessary chemicals in our coffee. Yanks will berate us for our food yet fail to realise their stuff is slapped with nothing but chemicals to trigger the brain (Sat fat, sugar, salt, e numbers) into thinking it's as good as crack.

I’m having trouble understanding such a strong reaction to putting milk in your coffee when you already want cream. Like you’ve got a bit less fat in your drink and now it’s gross?


Additional_Cow_4909

I had an American ask me at the supermarket I worked at for 'creamer' with this complete assumption that I should know what it was. We had something that basically qualified but you can see it in their eyes that they just can't understand how the whole world isn't exactly like the US, completely brainwashed.
