Disney World changing to powdered creamer

[DLgal]

Whole Foods has cans of cold brew coffee with butter in it.

How does the butter not solidify?

Do they still have half and half?

They did not have half and half at Pop Century (that I saw). Perhaps I missed it though

It seems to me about 6-8 years ago, DVC had the powder packets in the rooms.

Hopefully these aren't leftover from that!

Heavy/light cream in your coffee is really good, but I feel so full after it that I don’t do it often. I watched a show about coffee once and the host was in a tribal hut in Kenya or Ethiopia and they were putting butter in their coffee.

Nomad lounge has a coffee drink that has butter!

I stopped by Riviera this morning for breakfast and saw they still have liquid CoffeeMate

That's really interesting. But last thing I need is another reason to reach for butter - ha!
What's next - bacon? (hmmm)

No shortage of creamers as I can see. I am a dietician at a Veterans' hospital and we never have any difficulty getting creamers. Four different flavors as well as half and half. Plenty to go around. And powdered creamer is much much less expensive.

...powdered creamer is much much less expensive.

Bingo!

Liquid Coffee Mate is not much better tbh.

I still remember ropedropping Frozen back when it first opened with plans to do Las Halles bakery right after. So that morning instead of making coffee in my room with the real milk I supplied myself in the fridge, I decided to wait for the ’better’ coffee. Only after spending 30 minutes on line and $40+ for my family did we found out CoffeeMate only. Yuck!

This trip I threw out 2 coffees ($12 worth). One was the cold brew from Joffrey’s in Contemporary, the second was Joffrey’s specialty cold brew in Pixar Place. On wait a minute… actually 3. The coffee at the Creperie was also undrinkable due to being room temp and tasting like dishwater.

There’s a reason Starbucks has long lines at the parks. It’s hard to get decent coffee. I prefer local cafes at home to Starbucks, but at least they’re consistent.

It is pretty sad when Charbucks gets classified as decent coffee.

I remember many years ago when Disney served (and advertised) their coffee as Nescafé.

I am so not surprised. Powdered creamer reminds me of the coffee you get while waiting for an oil change. Blech.

As we're driving this time, I'm looking forward to bringing our coffee pot, grinder, and favorite roast. Even if I were flying I think I'd pack an Aeropress and pre-grind my own supply!

Wow. That brought back memories.

Didn’t even think to do that. Bringing my aeropress next time! It will travel great

The French Market at Disneyland was sponsored by Stouffers. I never understood that one. About as bad as if the Pizza Planet was sponsored by Dominio's. Now if the Ratatouille restaurant at Disneyland Paris was sponsored by Chef Boyardee that would be funny.

 

[Nabas]

Mixed feelings about this.

Definitely prefer creamer but about one-third of the half-and-half I’ve used in DVC rooms in the last few years had gone bad. I’ve dumped perhaps a dozen cups of coffee since 2020.

 

[notatallmagic]

Wow. That brought back memories.

It IS a triggering type memory, isn't it?

 

[Grace&Carolinesmom]

OK. So do the resort quick service locations still offer dairy like milk or half and half to add to coffee? Or would I need to buy a carton of milk?

My dad used to refer to powdered creamer as "chalkdust"
