Default Cool Whip

I was in the grocery yesterday looking at Cool Whip to buy it for a pie
I'm taking to a pot luck on Christmas Eve. There is Cool Whip, Cool Whip
Lite, Cool Whip Free and Sugar-free Cool Whip.

Regular, Lite and Free Cool Whip are only 2 gram of carbs per 2
tablespoon serving. The sugar-free was 3 grams.

Though I find this amusing, I have to wonder at the lack of awareness in
the food industry about sugar-free foods. (Don't even get me started on
the cookbook industry!)

I used to like Cool Whip, but anymore, I just hate it. It leaves an
oily feel in my mouth. Dunno why that is, but it's nasty to me. I'd
sooner do real whipped cream. :-)

Me, too. But this is for a dessert pie that's going to a shared dinner
for over 20 people and the real whipped cream won't keep nearly as well.

Some people buy sugar free foods for a different reason. There are some
(probably just a few) people who have an allergy to cane sugar.

A while back I found sugar-free whipped cream - the kind that comes in a
spray container like Reddi-Wip.

I haven't found it again. Very annoying; I'd wondered for years why
they didn't make that, and I only got to buy it once before it disappeared.

Back to whipping cream myself...

None of the Coolwhip products contain *ANY* transfats. Where are you
getting your information from?

I don't know how they can say it contains no transfats when the prime
ingredient is hydrogenated vegetable oil?

The pie won't be refrigerated for a couple of hours. I thought the

Cool
Whip would work better.


Or you could always stabilize the whipped cream. It lasts a long time
that way. :-)

Huh? Unless they changed them they are all trans-fats.

What, exactly, do you think "hydrogenated" means?


The information label for coolwhip states "Trans Fat 0g"

What do you think "0" means?
