Wasting creamer for coffee

Anonymous
I feel like it is good at least a month from opening. The only think I adhere to the use within 4 days (or however many) days from opening is deli meat in a package- which is rare I buy anyhow. But I feel like it gets gross immediately

I use Silk almond creamer that is dairy free and I’m the only coffee drinker in my house and have 1 cup every day. I know why they do it, but It would be great if they sold smaller bottles.

Wasting coffee by adding creamer is more like it.

Milk ALSO has a label to use within 7 days.


Right, but milk almost always does go bad within that time frame. I have yet to find a creamer that is rancid after a week — or even 3 weeks.

When I was single, I just bought 1/2 pints of half and half. I've never liked the flavored crap.

My mother uses one serving of creamer every day and lives alone. She buys the box of 20 or so single serving size creamers so she opens a new one every day.

You could also buy a pint of half and half and sweeten with maple syrup.


If you put half and half in your coffee and *still* need sweetener, you need to reevaluate your life choices.

I drink hot coffee black and iced coffee with heavy cream, no sweetener in either.

I do pick up whatever holiday creamer will make me happy for thanksgiving week and Christmas week, but I’m done with the taste within 7 days. I’d probably keep it longer anyway though.

[Psst: A half pint commonly is referred to as "a cup." You're welcome.]

dp I think you need to revaluate your need to be the 'school scold' It is my coffee, not yours and I will put whatever I want in it.

DP. No one refers to buying a container of coffee creamer, milk, juice, etc. in “cups”

I’m not a coffee drinker. Is powdered creamer not a thing anymore? My dad used to use powdered whole milk as creamer, that has a long shelf life.

This. Or better yet, drink it black.


That's me! I cannot imagine sweetening coffee.

Oh yeah. That stuff. My work had it in the mid-90s. They were so cheap.
I remember going to conferences back then with that stuff.
