The poll is anonymous so tell the truth. :arrow: :D Hey, what's that white stuff in my mouth?

Anonymity be damned!

I ALWAYS eat it straight from the can when it's in the house...

...but it's RARELY in the house (for obvious reasons! :lol: )...

...not sure exactly what poll answer that works out to be...
 
It doesn't last long in our house and we rarely buy it, but when it's there I spray about half the can onto waffles or strawberry shortcake and the other half gets consumed straight from the can by both my husband and I during random MOTN trips to the kitchen. Then we forget about it for months. :bigsmile:
 
RARELY - I'm afraid of it exploding all over me ( :shock: :lol: ) but my DD and DS.... EVERY TIME we turn around, they are in the fridge spritzing some in their mouths!! I'm with vc10um - for obvious reasons, we don't keep it in the house! :lickout:
 
Never. We don't buy any and whenever we eat out, we request that the whip cream be withheld or we'll remove it after it is served.
 
I rarely ever buy it, but yea if its in the house I have eaten it from the can :lol:
 
As often as I can!!! :lickout:
 
Never have and never will. I hate whipped cream. Tastes like nothing!
 
Agree with Chrono and YT. Don't see the appeal. If I'm going to eat worthless calories, I'd rather it be cheese or chocolate! :naughty:
 
I prefer Cool Whip, which doesn't come in a can, but a tub. And yes, if it's in the house I will it eat straight out of the tub with a spoon. Which is why I only buy it for holiday pies :D
 
Yikes Kenny. I knew it was bad...but that's scary!

Please note that in restaurants, if they say whipped topping, it's hydrogenated oil and chemicals (like Cool Whip!). I refuse to eat it in restaurants unless it's actual whipped cream!

I won't eat it from the can though.

Yeah I won't eat the fake mystery stuff at restaurants either, but I did vote sometimes. :oops: :twisted:
 
Run away screaming from CW after reading this snip from wired.com

Cool Whip is a delicious blend of sugar, wax, and condom lube.

Water
It's the main ingredient. But like any whipped product, Cool Whip contains a high percentage of air. At 41 cents per ounce, you're buying mostly water and air for just over twice what it would cost to whip real cream yourself.

Natural and Artificial Flavorings
Cool Whip doesn't really taste like much, but Kraft's recipe for blandness is a trade secret. That means the company doesn't have to disclose the specific flavorings.

Corn Syrup and High-Fructose Corn Syrup
Sugar by other names. Corn syrup is mostly glucose. High-fructose corn syrup is corn syrup treated with amylase and other enzymes, which together help convert glucose into fructose. A diet high in fructose is known to make lab mice fatter than other diets, so keep your research animals away from Cool Whip.

Hydrogenated Coconut and Palm Kernel Oil
Cool Whip needs to feel like whipped cream in the mouth without actually being, you know, made with cream. One cheap, reliable way to replicate the texture is by using semi- solidified plant oils. The best method of solidifying plant oils: Bubble high- pressure hydrogen through them. Of course, if not done completely, the result is trans fat. These days, Kraft avoids that.

Polysorbate 60
Polysorbates are made by polymerizing ethylene oxide (a precursor to antifreeze) with a sugar alcohol derivative. The result can be a detergent, an emulsifier, or, in the case of polysorbate 60, a major ingredient in some sexual lubricants.

Sodium Caseinate
Also common in powdered non-dairy creamer, this protein derived from cow milk helps oil and water mix.

Sorbitan Monostearate
Chemists call this stuff synthetic wax, and it's sometimes used as a hemorrhoid cream. It's one of the magical substances that keep Cool Whip from turning to liquid over time in the fridge.

Xanthan and Guar Gums
These are natural thickeners, and together they provide more viscosity than either does alone. Guar also helps retard the formation of ice crystals, another key to preserving fluffiness.

I never do. My husband and youngest son are a different story. The thought of them having the nozzel in their mouths grosses me out to the point to where I don't even eat whipped cream unless it is whipped from the carton.
 
We hardly ever have it...I like to make my own whipped cream (around the holidays), but the BEST whipped cream (aside from mine) is OBERWEIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my goodness, I could swim in that stuff!!
 
Never, I don't like it. What I do love is home made whipped cream (well, store bought cream, whipped at home). SO good. I have a yummy pumpkin cheesecake I make- I add caramel and cinnamon to the whipped cream.
 
What IS that white stuff in your mouth Kenny?
 
I make my own at home.

Easy. Heavy cream or whipping cream + whipping beater + electric mixer + icing sugar (powder sugar) +vanilla on high for about 5 minutes. To speed the process put the bowl and the beater your using in the freezer for 30 minutes before hand.

It's amazing and way better than store bought.


I eat it out of the bowl when I make it myself :)
 
I hate the stuff. I seriously will send back a drink if it comes with it on the top. No, scraping it off the top isn't the same because it's already seeped into the top layer. The Cheesecake Factory always has it on their cheesecakes, and I always have to scoop a layer of the cheesecake off just to get the crap off. *shudders. I hate whipped cream! YUCK! :knockout:
 
Never.
I use only Lite Cool Whip.
Yeah, I know it's all chemicals. But it's tasty chemicals.

Everything is tasty chemicals. Even dihydrogen monoxide is essential for life.

Yes, what is it? Inquiring minds want to know. :lol:






I've tried it once, in college, but I didn't inhale ... wait, what? :sun:

That's what I have to do! I ask for no whipped cream and they look at me like I'm crazy... But luckily DH loooooooves whipped cream so he eats the whipped cream and I eat the cheesecake as fast as possible before he finishes. Hee! Hee!
 
I only do it when the kids do it first!

Exactly this. We rarely buy it but when we do, I get yelled at for eating it everyday right from the can.
