The lid fell off my wife’s coffee whitener…
Yes. She uses whitener or “pixie dust” as her family calls it. Her whole family does and even her grandparents. Might be an Alberta thing I’m not sure. Never milk or cream.
Anyway I went to mix her coffee for her and went to dump some whitener in and the lid just completely fell off and the resulting scene looked like something from Scarface.
Edit: Haha wow I didn’t know “coffee whitener” would stir such a fuss. That is the generic term for “non dairy creamer”. The most common brand name I’m aware of is Coffee Mate but we also buy the generic from Walmart and it says in big bold letters “coffee whitener” on it. Her family calls it Pixie Dust. I’ve never called it anything cause I didn’t know it existed until I met her.
I’m not sure if it’s a naming law in Canada since you can’t call something “creamer” if it doesn’t contain cream? I donno. Anyway don’t come at me. I don’t even drink the stuff and I didn’t name it. I was just trying to give my wife some coffee…. Whitened coffee.
Edit again: I just realized we also call Kraft Macaroni “Kraft Dinner or KD” because we aren’t allowed to call it “Mac and Cheese” because it doesn’t actually contain cheese. So I’m certain we have to call it whitener for a similar reason.
