wrong. wrong. wrong.
Aug. 12th, 2004 11:02 amThere's free coffee at the office, and while it's not very good coffee, hey, man, free coffee.
For additives I have a choice between whole milk and nondairy creamer. Which is okay, whole milk is almost as good as half-and-half for lightening coffee, so I go along with that.
This morning I noticed a quart of half-and-half in the fridge. Which I wouldn't go out of my way to get, but you know, as long as it's there, I might as well.
So I took it out. And then I saw what it was.
It was "Fat Free Half & Half."
What the hell? Fat free half-and-half? Like dehydrated water? Or unscented deodorant? How the hell is that supposed to work?
The ingredient list includes nonfat milk, milk, corn syrup solids, a whole mess of carageenan and a bunch of things I don't know how to spell. In defeat, I put it in my coffee anyway, and so far I haven't exploded.
