cruise ship coffee creamer

Can you Bring Coffee Creamer on Carnival Cruise?

Sharing is caring!

Coffee creamer is a must-have in the routine of a great number of people who are enthusiastic about coffee.

Coffee creamer improves the whole experience of drinking coffee in a variety of ways, including adding a dash of flavor and helping to get the ideal creamy consistency.

The good news is that Carnival Cruises allows coffee creamers . Their policy allows customers to bring non-alcoholic drinks, including coffee creamers. The creamer shouldn’t need refrigeration or special handling. Individual portions or tiny containers are advised for convenience and usability.

For many who are passionate about coffee, the quality of their morning beverage may either make or break their mood.

For some of us, things like the scent, the warmth, and that velvety touch are non-negotiable requirements.

Therefore, it should come as no surprise that people who enjoy coffee frequently question the logistics of making sure their coffee is prepared properly when sailing with Carnival.

Carnival Cruise Policies

Prior to discussing the details of carrying the coffee creamer on board, it is essential to acquaint ourselves with the overall policies of Carnival Cruise Line.

Cruise lines, like Carnival, have implemented laws to guarantee safety and enhance the overall experience of their customers.

These policies frequently encompass the items that passengers are permitted and prohibited from bringing on board.

When it comes to bringing outside food and beverages on a Carnival Cruise, there are some general rules and restrictions that passengers should be aware of.

Carnival Cruise Line has a policy that prohibits passengers from bringing onboard any food items that require preparation or cooking, as well as any beverages, except for certain non-alcoholic beverages for medical or dietary needs.

The reason behind this policy is to ensure the safety and satisfaction of all passengers.

By controlling the food and beverage options available onboard, Carnival Cruise Line can ensure that all meals and snacks served meet their quality and safety standards.

Additionally, this policy helps to prevent any potential foodborne illnesses that could arise from improperly stored or prepared food items brought from outside.

The Policies Regarding Beverages and Food

Carnival Cruise Line has established explicit regulations pertaining to the allowance of alcohol and food products brought onto their vessels.

In relation to beverages, individuals are permitted to transport a restricted quantity of non-alcoholic beverages, including water , soda , and juice .

Nevertheless, alcoholic beverages are commonly subject to limitations or restrictions.

Carnival Cruise Line has established regulations that ban passengers from bringing perishable food items or any items that necessitate refrigeration.

Restriction on Liquids

The restrictions placed on liquids are one of the components of this conversation that is of the utmost importance.

When it comes to liquids, Carnival Cruise Line strictly adheres to the criteria established by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA).

This means that any liquids that are carried on board must be contained in containers that are no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters), and all the containers must be able to fit into a single resealable plastic bag of quart size.

This applies not only to beverages but also to any other liquid food items or condiments, such as salad dressings or, you guessed it, coffee creamer.

As a result, it is essential that you pay attention to these laws while you are planning your cruise and take into consideration bringing a coffee creamer on board.

Bringing Coffee Creamer On Carnival Cruise

The answer is a little bit complex. In general, guests of Carnival Cruise Line are permitted to bring on board modest quantities of non-perishable, pre-packaged food items; however, there are some restrictions regarding this policy.

This covers things like dry products and various kinds of snacks.

Carnival adheres to the TSA’s standards on liquids.

In order to comply with this guideline, your coffee creamer must come in a container that is 3.4 fluid ounces (100 milliliters) or less and be able to fit inside a plastic bag that is quart-sized and resealable.

This is a problem for many people who enjoy coffee because the containers that are typically used for coffee creamers are typically larger than the size that is permitted.

If you are set on bringing your creamer with you, you should think about moving it into travel-sized containers or purchasing single-serve creamer capsules that are the required size.

You’re in luck if you prefer creamer made with non-dairy ingredients! at most cases, non-dairy creamer alternatives can be found onboard a Carnival Cruise Line ship, most frequently at the buffet sections or restaurants.

Guests who require alternatives that do not contain lactose or animal products can easily make use of these possibilities.

Even while it might not be your go-to brand, it’s a good option for making sure you have a pleasant experience drinking coffee in the morning.

You can discuss your dietary limitations with the dining staff at Carnival Cruise Line’s “Your Time Dining” option, which is available for guests who have special dietary needs or allergies.

These discussions may include your preferences for creamers.

Because this is a tailored service, it will ensure that you have the appropriate accompaniments to your coffee that are suitable for your diet.

Alternatives To Bringing Coffee Creamer On Board

There are various options available for you to choose from if you have particular dietary requirements or preferences with regard to your coffee.

In place of the traditional creamer, Carnival Cruise Line provides guests with a selection of non-dairy milk alternatives such as soy milk, almond milk, and coconut milk , all of which can be used in place of normal creamer.

In addition, some cruise ships include specialized coffee shops where customers can choose from a broad variety of flavor combinations and alternative creamer options.

In conclusion, even though you might not be allowed to bring your own coffee creamer on a Carnival Cruise, there are a lot of other options and substitutes that you can choose from while you’re there.

When it comes to the food and beverages that are served aboard Carnival Cruise Line ships, the company places a high priority on the safety and quality control of those items.

Additionally, the company makes an effort to give a number of options so that they may cater to the various dietary requirements and preferences of their passengers.

So, take it easy, put your feet up, and enjoy your morning coffee with one of the many different creamers that are offered on board the ship.

Tips For Bringing Coffee Creamer On Carnival Cruise

• Pack smart: Coffee creamer container selection

If you are a coffee lover, you might be curious about whether or not you are permitted to bring your preferred coffee creamer on a Carnival Cruise.

Even while every cruise line has its own set of policies and guidelines, in general, you are permitted to carry onboard limited quantities of unopened coffee creamers in sealed containers.

However, it is essential to pack efficiently and take into consideration the following suggestions:

Choose containers that you can transport: Choose coffee creamer in tiny containers that are travel-friendly and do not exceed the maximum volume of liquid that is permitted.

By doing so, you will avoid having your cherished creamer taken away from you or thrown away because you will be in compliance with the requirements of the cruise company.

Avoid glass containers:  Glass containers are more likely to shatter, particularly in the midst of the commotion that occurs during embarkation and disembarkation.

Choose containers made of plastic or that are lightweight, as these are less likely to shatter and produce a mess if they do.

• Ensuring proper storage and durability during the cruise

Although it is essential that you pack your coffee creamer in the appropriate manner, it is of equal significance that you keep it in an airtight container to guarantee that it remains durable and fresh throughout the cruise.

Here are some guidelines to keep in mind:

Employ containers that can be resealed and do not leak: To avoid any accidents with spills or leaks, transfer your coffee creamer to containers that can be resealed and do not leak.

This will prevent any undesired mess from occurring in your luggage or cabin by keeping your creamer safe and protected.

Coffee creamer is best preserved when kept in a cool and dry location: If you want to get the most out of it, make sure you store it correctly.

It is best not to leave it in direct sunlight or at temperatures that are too high, as doing so may change the way the creamer tastes and how it behaves.

• Use cruise ship amenities to improve your coffee experience.

Bring your own coffee creamer to enjoy your favorite cup of coffee, but don’t forget to use the cruise ship’s amenities to enhance your coffee experience.

Here are some ideas:

Discover Carnival Cruise ships’ specialized coffee bars and cafes, where you may enjoy a range of coffee drinks.

Your preferred creamer may be available at these sites.

If you’re adventurous, cruise ships offer flavored creamers. Explore your tastes and find new favorites.

Engage with the baristas: Cruise ship baristas are generally coffee experts.

Talk to someone, ask for advice, or learn about brewing methods to improve your coffee experience.

Finally, if you obey Carnival Cruise Line’s restrictions, you can bring a coffee creamer.

To improve your coffee experience, pack smart, use the right containers, store your creamer properly, and use shipping facilities.

According to Carnival Cruise Line’s policy, guests are not allowed to bring their own food or beverages, including a coffee creamer but it is allowed to bring in travel size containers.

However, the ships do offer a variety of options for coffee and creamer onboard, so you can still enjoy your morning cup of joe.

Enjoy your cruise and your favorite cup of coffee!

Coffee Creamer

My husband loves his International Delight French Vanilla Coffee Creamer and is wondering if he needs to bring it on the ship with him. If he can bring it on the ship with him. We are sailing on the Jewel in Sept. For all I know they may even have it on the ship. Any help with this would be wonderful. Thanks so much!

We were on the Jewel in January and wondered the same thing.

Luckily we did bring our own International Delight (Irish Creme) because it wasn't available on the ship.

I put the container in a ziploc bag and had it in my carry on, but no one even asked me what it was.

Be on the safe side and bring it with you. Hope you have as great a time as we did!

AnitaVacation

I brought my own on my last cruise (in my checked bag).....just make sure you have a refrig....although I have seen some places where you can buy the little cups that do not require refrigeration.....also, Coffeemate (my preference) offers their flavored creamers in powder form....

Carry it on in whatever way is safe to keep it from spilling. If its dry creamer you could check it too inside your luggage. I dont think you'd have any problems in your carry on with liquid creamer though as far as NCL goes. However, if you want to try a more "aggressive" creamer, use rum runners to get Kahlua and Baileys on board in your checked bags! ;)

It will not be onboard. You can certainly bring your own with no problem. I assume you are not flying, as there are limits on the amount of liquids you can bring on the flight?

I have yet to sail but research this completely. I have seen creamer cups (like they have in restaurants), half pint milk and low fat milk cartons, some of the bars have monin syrups if you like a frosted mint coffee for instance. If you bring your own creamer be sure to keep it cold...

I recall half and half and milk on the Sky. There shouldn't be a problem with bringing your own onboard, the biggest problem would be keeping liquid creamer cold but that certainly isn't insurmountable.

Thanks so much everyone, we really appreciate it. We will be traveling into NYC on the train the day before so no flying worries. Now to find a store close to the hotel to buy some before we board the ship. Once again Thanks!

Hey Cperk: I carry on Fat Free Vanilla Creamer. The quart doesn't fit in the fridge very well so I pour it into water bottles so it seals better and i can lay them down in the fridge.

In our stores, they sell International Delight in little individual non-refrigerator cups in a box of 24 or so. They are the ones they have at gas station coffee stations. However, they do not come in fat free.

OMG....you live in Fulton!!?? I live in Liverpool!!! (cruise-a-holics)....anyway....I'm pretty sure that BigLots carries the boxes of the tiny flavored creamer cups from international delight....

Our last cruise out of nyc we drove down and parked right at the pier....it was about the same/cheaper than taking the train, taxi, etc....(we did take the greyhound bus once....never again)....parking at the pier is $30 day and it's so nice to just drive right up, they take your bags at the curb and when you get back, you can just hop in your car and go.....(we will also be driving to nyc for our Sept cruise)...

Anyway...nice to see someone so close :)

DS#1 goes to Utica College, does that count;)? Staples might also carry the little containers (I forgot about those). Just checked at Staples: http://www.staples.com/International-Delight-Non-Dairy-Liquid-Coffee-Creamers/product_SS1057753

We always bring our own...no need for refrigeration. My wife likes French Vanilla and I must have my Irish Cream (also works well with a jigger of something stronger). Just throw the little thingies in your luggage. No problem.

Utica is close....(close to the casino too)....ever go?? The casino is my guilty pleasure.....fun when you win....but it's been awhile since I've come home ahead.....we'll be heading out there next Saturday....:cool:

Right now I'm gambling my money that he'll graduate in three more years:D.

That is too funny! It's such a small world. When in Sept are you cruising? We are cruising the Jewel Sept 3rd. We are taking the train down the day before and taking the girls to a Yankee game. Hotel is 2 blocks from the pier so we will be walking over to the ship.

I thought I was the only fanatic who needed to bring his own coffee lightener. I just take a small bottle of the generic non-fat creamer. The only trouble is I keep leaving it at my table and then have to run back to the dining room. Fortunately it always turns up at the table or the maitre d's desk. But it really improves on the taste of most cruise ship coffee.

We are cruising nyc to Bermuda on Sept 27 (on ccl)....we got such a fantastic deal, we couldnt say no........this is our first year cruising with carnival....so, in June, we took a quick 4 day cruise nyc to canada to test it out.....so, I've been on Carnival, RC and NCL....and honestly, they seem to all be about the same.....I will say, what I like about Carnival....each adult can carry on a bottle of wine and each person can bring 12 non-alcoholic (soda/water/juice) onboard....and also, with carnival, you can order a bottle of liquor for your stateroom....yes, I paid $40 for a bottle of beefeaters gin, but it was less than I would have spent at the bar and brought home what I didnt drink....and the other thing I like about Carnival....the size of a standard cabin is 185sf....NCL cabins tend to be small.....

We went on the Jewel last fall...nyc to Florida, Nassau and the private island....we went down via greyhound....never again...

Let me know how the train ride goes.....that was the way we planned this next trip, but since it's so easy to drive and park at the pier, hubby decided we would drive down in Sept...that will cost us $240 in parking + gas...but a whole lot of convenience (not having to go to the train station and lug our bags and get a taxi, etc)....

Can You Bring Coffee Creamer On Carnival Cruise?

Carnival Cruise Lines allows passengers to bring a small quantity of non-alcoholic beverages such as sparkling water, sodas, juice, and milk packaged in cans or cartons onboard on embarkation day. However, it is not permitted to bring coffee creamer on the ship. Instead, passengers can purchase coffee and tea onboard and add their own sugar, honey, or Coffee Mate to their drinks.

If you are a coffee snob who cannot live without having flavored coffee creamer, then you can bring your own individual packets of creamer in your checked luggage, double-wrapped in a zip lock baggie. This way, you can enjoy the same great taste of your favorite creamer while onboard the cruise.

Alternatively, you can take advantage of the Holland America happy hour, where you can get beers for as low as $2.98, which is even cheaper than buying them at a bar on land. This way, you can save money and still enjoy your favorite drinks onboard the ship.

Let’s dig into it and see what secrets it holds.

Are There Any Restrictions On How Much Coffee Creamer I Can Bring On Board?

When travelling on a Carnival Cruise, you can bring powdered coffee creamer on board, but it is best to limit the amount to containers of 12 ounces or less. This is due to the United States restriction or ban of many agricultural products when travelling from an international last-point-of-departure to the U.S., and powder-based substances in carry-on baggage greater than 12 ounces are not allowed. In addition to this, you should be aware of the 3-1-1 liquids rule established by the TSA, which states that liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces are not allowed in carry-on baggage.

Carnival Cruise Line also prohibits weapons, illegal drugs, and certain items that could interfere with the safe operation of its ships or compromise the safety of its passengers.

In conclusion, you can bring powdered coffee creamer on board a Carnival Cruise, but it is important to be aware of the restrictions and regulations set in place by the TSA, the United States government, and Carnival Cruise Line. Make sure to limit the amount of containers you bring, and always be aware of the 3-1-1 liquids rule.

Things I can bring? Liquid coffee creamer and wine questions.

Leaving on Magic in 2 weeks. 2 quick questions. Can I bring an unopened bottle of liquid coffee creamer? And, if I bring wine can I take the bottle with me to dinner having opened it in room without a fee or bring an already poured glass?

No problems bringing the liquid coffee creamer as long as it is still sealed. You can place it in your checked or carry on bag. Bringing an already poured glass would not incur Carnival's "corkage fee". Bringing a bottle (open or unopened) into the main dining room or any restaurant onboard technically would incur the $15 corkage fee. Carnival's Corkage Fee Details : A $15 USD corkage fee, per 750 ml bottle, will be charged should guests wish to consume their wine or champagne in the main dining room, specialty restaurant or bar. A corkage fee is a charge assessed at time of service at a restaurant for every bottle served that is not bought on the premises.

Thank you. That answers both of my questions perfectly.

12 Things to Bring from Home to Save Money on Your Cruise

L ooking to save money on your next cruise while sticking to a budget? There’s an easy way to do so—bring things from home instead of buying them on the cruise. Buying things onboard can get expensive, as prices are often marked up in the cruise’s gift shop. So, what can you bring from home? Here are some things to pack on your next cruise that will save you money.

What to Bring to Your Cruise to Save You Money

1. refillable water bottles.

Bringing refillable water bottles tops my list of things to bring on a cruise to save money. Cruise ships don’t provide free water in your cabin, so you’ll need to buy bottled water from the cruise line. 

But why pay for water when you can get it for free from the buffet? Simply bring your own refillable water bottle, fill it up with water and ice and take it to your cabin. This will also come in handy when you go ashore. It’s best to bring water bottles without straws so you don’t have to wash them in your cabin.

2. Travel Mug

I always bring an insulated travel coffee mug with me on a cruise. I love drinking tea and coffee all day long, so I fill it up with coffee at the buffet and carry it around the ship. 

Because I have a travel mug, I don’t feel the need to buy coffee from the cruise specialty coffee shop. This not only saves me money but also saves me time from having to go back to the buffet to refill my coffee. 

Even if you’re not a coffee or tea drinker, you can fill up your travel mug with free juices, iced tea, or lemonade from the buffet during breakfast. It’s so convenient to have a travel mug on sea days because it will save you the hassle of constantly going back and forth to the buffet for water. Trust me, you’ll thank me later for this tip! I like this insulated mug with lid .

3. Flavored Coffee Creamer

I like having a little bit of flavor in my coffee, so I always bring flavored coffee creamer from home. I usually pack a few packets of powdered coffee creamers so that I can have my hazelnut coffee without having to buy coffee at the specialty coffee shop.

4. Flavored Water Powder

I always make sure to bring some flavored water powder when I go on a cruise, like Crystal Light or Gatorade powder. I’m not a big fan of plain water, so I like to add a bit of flavor to my water so it tastes great. 

This saves me money because I don’t have to buy drinks on the cruise. It’s especially handy when we’re out exploring the port—I’ll mix some Peach Mango flavor with some ice-cold water, and it’s super refreshing to drink. 

My kids really love them too. They have these flavored packets that taste just like Skittles , Welch’s fruit snacks, and Starburst !

I’ve also made my own alcoholic cocktails mixing wine with some flavored water- it’s my own version of sangria!

5. Bottle of Wine 

Many first-time cruisers don’t know this, but they can bring wine onboard the ship for free. It’s a great way to save money on your cruise!

Most cruise lines allow you to bring one bottle of wine or champagne per person, up to 750 ml, on the ship when you bring it on embarkation day. Some cruise lines even allow you to bring two bottles. 

Remember this only applies to wine that you bring on the first day of your cruise. Any alcohol that you buy at the ports will be taken and kept until the end of the cruise. It’s also important to note that cruise lines charge a corkage fee if you drink the wine in a restaurant or public area. 

It’s best to double-check with your cruise line before bringing wine since their alcohol policy can change. 

What you can bring will vary depending on the cruise line. For example, Carnival allows one 750-ml bottle of sealed/unopened wine or champagne per person in their carry-on luggage. Royal Caribbean allows each adult to bring one sealed 750 ml bottle of wine or champagne on embarkation day. Boxed wine are prohibited. 

Norwegian cruise line is different. They allow guests to bring bottles of wine and champagne on board. When bottles are brought on board and served or consumed in any restaurant, public room area, or stateroom , a corkage fee will be charged according to the bottle size. 

Princess Cruise guests are allowed to bring one 750ml bottle of wine or champagne on board. There will be no corkage fee if you drink your wine in your stateroom. 

Disney Cruise Line’s policy is more generous. They allow guests 21 years and older to bring a maximum of 2 bottles of unopened wine or sparkling wine (no larger than 750 ml) or 6 beers (no larger than 12 ounces) on board at the beginning of your cruise.

One way to save money on your cruise is by packing your own soda and juice. Most cruise lines allow you to bring a few bottles or cans of non-alcoholic beverages with your carry-on luggage when you board the ship on the first day. 

Every cruise line has its own policy of what you can and can’t bring onboard. For example, Norwegian has a strict policy of not allowing any non-alcoholic beverages on board.

Royal Caribbean, on the other hand, allows guests to bring non-alcoholic beverages as carry-on items on embarkation day. These non-alcoholic drinks cannot exceed 12 standard (17 oz.) cans, bottles or cartons per stateroom.

Carnival also allows non-alcoholic beverages, such as sparkling water, sodas, energy drinks, juice, and milk, in cans or cartons, on embarkation day. These must be carried in the guest’s carry-on luggage. Carnival allows you to bring a maximum of 12 sealed, unopened cans/cartons of 12-ounces/354-ml each, per person.

Again, check the cruise line policy before bringing any beverages onboard the ship.

7. Snorkeling gear

If you’re planning to go snorkeling during your cruise, a great way to save money is to bring your own snorkel gear. Not only will you be able to save on rental fees, but you’ll also enjoy the added benefit of using your own snorkel gear, which is much more hygienic. 

Just keep in mind that some cruise lines impose restrictions on bringing your own snorkel gear, so it’s important to check their policy beforehand. Bringing your own snorkel gear is definitely worth it if you plan on snorkeling frequently during your cruise.

8. Water Shoes

One way to save money on your cruise is to bring your own water shoes. Protecting your feet against jagged rocks while swimming, snorkeling, or kayaking is important. Plus, water shoes can prevent you from slipping on wet surfaces and provide more comfort than flip-flops. 

I have been on several Caribbean cruises where I thought I could do without water shoes but ended up buying them from a beach gift shop at a premium price. Now, to save money, I always bring my own water shoes .

9. Collapsible Beach Toys

If you’re traveling on a cruise with your kids and planning to spend most of your time at the beach, you should bring your own beach toys. Otherwise, your kids will end up using plastic cups as buckets, which is no fun! 

If you’re like me, you will feel guilty letting your kids play with plastic cups so you end up buying overpriced sand toys from the beach vendors. To save money and keep your kids entertained, it’s best to bring your own beach toys. 

I like this beach toy set because it’s collapsible and can easily fit into your luggage and is convenient to carry around.

10. Laundry Detergent and Wrinkle Remover

If you want to save money and avoid running out of clean clothes, you can wash some of your lightweight clothes in the sink or the shower. Bring some laundry detergent to make it easier. I like these travel detergent packs .

I also always bring a small wrinkle releaser spray to smooth out the wrinkles in clothes. You never know when it might come in handy, especially when you are traveling and have limited access to an iron. You can keep your clothes clean and fresh without spending extra money on laundry services.

11. Luggage Scale

I always make sure to bring a luggage scale with me when I go on a cruise. This way, I can weigh my baggage and avoid paying overweight fees at the airport. I like this luggage scale because it’s both compact and portable, making it easy to bring with you when you travel.

12. Foldable Duffel Bags

I don’t know about you, but every time I return from a cruise, I always end up with more baggage than I started with. Sometimes, I end up buying extra luggage or duffel bags from the port or cruise gift shop just to fit all my stuff, which I hate because I feel like I’m wasting money on overpriced luggage. 

So now, I always carry an additional foldable duffel bag in my luggage in case I need an extra one. It saves me money and the hassle of having to buy an extra bag at the port or gift shop. I like this foldable duffel bag because it’s easy to use.

Celebrity Cruises

Can you bring coffee creamer on board.

I always take International Coffee Creamer with me when we cruise. We were on a Carnival ship a couple of months ago and they have changed their rules. Even if the container has not been opened, you can no longer bring it on board. Does Celebrity allow it still?

Of course you can. Really surprised that Carnival will not allow it.

Carnival changed their rules because of alcohol smuggling. You can only take canned beverages onboard now. You probably could bring it onboard Celebrity, but since a container of liquid creamer must be refrigerated after opening, I would take a box of the 24 individual creamers. The refrigerators in the cabins don't always seem that cold.

I'm not sure if this help, but this is part of the email I received re what food is allowed to be brought on board when I asked about a celiac diet - "... dry, nonperishable food items such as cookies, crackers, chips, energy bars, etc... also individual packets of salad dressings. Guests may not bring on board any potentially hazardous food items. (Items that require refrigeration, freezing, reheating, or storage by the galley)."

I would also agree with a previous post that mentioned the cabin fridges - they really aren't cold enough!

I've taken the individual packets onboard Carnival without any problem. I just put them in a Ziploc bag inside my suitcase. That may have been before the rule change, though.

I always bring a box of the individual creamers onboard X when we cruise. It doesn't need refrigeration and we have never had an issue getting it onboard. What they want to avoid of course is people showing up with perishable food items and asking to have the crew refrigerate it, wasting space and crew hours.

Thanks for the replies. Going out to get my creamers today!

Guests are not allowed to bring on board any food items other than dry, nonperishable snack items (cookies, crackers, chips, energy bars, etc).

I find it funny that celebrity answers this question rather quickly, but often times when people post substantial questions there is no answer by celebrity.

Enjoy! I always bring along a bottle of International Delight creamer in my carry-on. Has never, ever been an issue! It would be nice if Celebrity would provide the small "flavored" creamers for coffee - possibly to go along with "Modern Luxury"!

For crying out loud -- who are you any way -- have you ever even taken a cruise? I ALWAYS take individual creamers - you know those tiny little cup things. They hold a teaspoon of creamer - that doesn't need to be refrigerated. What next - you going to confiscate creamers? I can't believe that you get paid for these responses. :cool:

Wow, Jane. Maybe more creamer and less coffee, okay.

Now that's funny, I don't care who you are. :D
