[HPFGU-OTChatter] Re: Clotted Cream

Carol:

And  milk in tea (to me, as an American) just sounds revolting. Just
sugar,  please, and a bit of lemon. 
Sandy:
 
I like tea, and I like it strong, using two tea bags per cup. Sugar only; I  
don't like lemon anything. I make the best iced tea using a combination of  
regular tea and orange-spice tea. I love that stuff. I always go for hot  
orange-spice tea when I am feeling under the weather.
 
Carol:

On  second thought, I'd rather have
coffee. And (I know everyone will laugh at  me), I actually prefer
powdered creamer to milk or real cream or half and  half in coffee.
Milk is too weak and cream too sour or something--not sure  why I don't
like it. (I do love cheese, whipped cream, ice cream, and  yogurt, so
it's not an aversion to dairy products in general.) And, of  course,
sugar in the coffee.
Sandy:
 
I am a pretty big coffee drinker, with sugar and powdered creamer, which I  
also prefer. Liquid creamer of any kind cools the coffee down, and I rarely get 
 the chance to finish it while it's still hot to begin with. I have also had 
it  curdle in the coffee - yuk, and I'm just not overly fond of the taste. I 
eat and  drink a lot of dairy but I don't like whipped cream, and clotted cream 
sounds  absolutely revolting.



Carol, who also prefers margarine to butter for the same  reason, that
strange sour taste in real dairy  products


Sandy, who uses more margarine than butter, but there are some things that  
are just better with butter.
