Half-And-Half: What You Should Know Before You Buy

If you're a coffee drinker who doesn't take it black, then you're probably quite familiar with half-and-half. If you only know the stuff from the little containers at your neighborhood diner, you may have wondered what exactly the two halves are, and how it's different from standard milk or cream.
Or maybe you didn't know that half-and-half has lots of uses besides just taking some of the edge off of a cup of joe. It's often used in cooking and in cocktails, but it can't just be used interchangeably with milk or cream. Here's what you should know before you buy half-and-half.

1:38 "shouldn't add milk to your scrambled eggs" Adding a splash of half and half will keep the eggs moist and fluffy, and will create an almost custard-like texture. Whole milk will also work, but lower-fat milk tends to make eggs watery. Use one tablespoon of cream, half and half, or whole milk for every three eggs being scrambled.

Well said Great Horned Owl, everything you said was true and accurate.

I like half and half in my coffee and as a substitute in recipes that call for milk.

[@charbar311226]

Same here.

I am lactose sensitive. I only use fat free half and half. It works great in everything.

Half &half is keto. It is lower in carbs than skim milk.

The Gov freaked out about saturated fat without making the very important clarification between lard which is solid external fat from pigs and cows. The saturated fat found in milk is extremely beneficial. Much like butter at body temperature, it's a liquid and it is needed for healthy bodies.

I'm not a big milk drinker and I take my coffee black. But I do keep half and half in the fridge for baking. It has a much longer shelf life than regular milk. It usually keeps for almost 2 months without spoilage.

[@StreetFaerie36]

My box reads to throw it away after 5 days of opening… hmmm maybe bc it’s organic?

[@nicoj3660]

Half half the best

[@bibson1405]

So it’s milk with added fat for extra fat chüñts?

[@Quincy_Plays]

To live a full life, you have to fill your stomach first.🤤

[@dskippy3789]

Bimini bop, I lickted that shit off of the table, with my cousin Peco.

[@TCY-jn9nw]

I just buy it because it lasts longer than regular milk.
