Doesn't require utensils. Neither does whipped cream made with an electric mixer. Also lol at condescending to people for having the nerve to buy whipped cream instead of buying whipping cream and then whipping it by hand.

It's fine for them, I just really hate the taste and it's got corn syrup and seaweed in it.

There's good chocolate available, but I've found you can't make a proper s'more without Hershey's.

You wouldn't believe the amount of chocolate we brought home from Switzerland, though.

Can you even buy whipped cream at a grocery store? I thought it was all "whipped topping".

It's a reusable nitrous cracker, expansion chamber, and an easy to use valve. It can also be used to make whipped cream.

With the way people get judgy about it, I'm imagining European groceries with a curtained off section like the porno corner of video rental stores where locals discreetly pick out their frozen pizzas and chicken tendies while trying to avoid the disapproving glare of their countrymen.

Some Brit is probably smuggling a cube of Kraft singles inside a hollowed out wheel of wensleydale as we speak.

It's not really the same thing. It's like comparing Easy Cheese and a regular cheese. Even the best whipped cream in a can I had was nowhere near in quality to a regular whipped cream made by whipping it at home.

And regarding my post that you quoted and couldn't somehow understand, what I meant was that cream doesn't spontaneously become whipped cream without being processed in any way. The whipped cream that comes out of an aerosol can is not pre-made but you make it when you press the button (the can is an "utensil" which you make the whipped cream with).

It's the British who call fried pieces of potato the wrong thing, though.

On the other hand, there was this brief period where you guys were supposed to call them Freedom Fries, so I'd say it's best to agree that there are dumbasses on all sides.

Like, 95% of the time the “canned poo poo” is just heavy cream and an accelerant though.

You absolutely cannot buy tubs of whipped cream, it doesn't keep after an hour.

You can buy tubs of whipped vegetable oil with artificial flavoring but you'd have to be a real dumb rear end in a top hat to call it whipped cream

I'm familiar with all kinds of whipped cream but I really don't know how to whip it without utensils.

MY FELLOW AMERICANS I bring you an important discovery. YOU HAVE BEEN LIED TO.

- Buy a half pint of heavy whipping cream. You will find it in the milk cooler, lurking near the half & half.



- Get a slightly larger lidded container, like a jar. Pour about 1/4 of the cream into the jar. Screw the lid on tight. Shake it HARD.

- After about 30 seconds of shaking it will magically turn into real whipped cream.

When the half pint is mostly gone, you can just hold the top shut and shake it then scoop it right out of the container.

According to my grandfather, in Scotland they settle these sorts of disagreements by emitting highly focused cones of deadly sound and whomever is able to overcome the other persons cone of sound with their own kills them Scanners-style, then is rewarded by the audience with biker speed and cranachan (both fresh, not store bought).
