I like cream in my coffee – heavy whipping cream. On a whim, I bought some Silk Soy Cream to try. It was horrible! Had to use five times as much to get a modicum of “lightening” effect, and the taste was bad. Like it had sugar in it, among other bad tastes. I poured it down the drain. I pity folks that have to use this stuff for health reasons. Poor souls!

It's an acquired taste, if at all. I usually use soy or other non-dairy substitute as I am lactose-intolerant. It did take a few soy lattes to accustom to the taste and even like it.

I never use soy, it isn’t even very healthy. There are lots of almond and coconut milk creamers to try.

I just use about a tablespoon of 2% milk in my coffee, and no sweetener.
I really don't like cream or half & half - it's way too heavy for me, and I don't like the taste it gives the coffee.

soy is yummy, however, almond is way better. I feel for you kkina.

I never touch the stuff either.

And it certainly didn't help my perception of that crap when I read that it gives you man boobs.

I occasionally do put milk and sugar in my coffee (on the ship though I only drink coffee black), and when I do, it's whole milk only. The only thing I put heavy cream in is a white russian.
