Dairy Confusion
Quoth the Wiki:
In the United States, half and half is a mix of ½ whole milk and ½ cream, typically used as a more stable cream in coffee. It has a fat content of about 12.5% and is sometimes used to make ice cream.
Ok. So at least according to the wikipedia - and according to everything I've known about it - Half & Half = Fat content. (And Fat=flavor, but that's another story...)
Can someone explain to me how, then, they have *fat free* half & half???
I saw that at the grocery store tonight & it confused me so bad I forgot why I was there. Why would anyone even *bother* w/ it at that point?
I can't wait until we start seeing citrus free oranges & starch free potatoes.
It's only a matter of time.
