Re: Answer my question or I'll keep pestering -- WTF does cream in the local store contain carrageenan, polysorbate, preservatives, and mono/di- glycerides when milk doesn't?!

The only good sour cream is the sour cream made from real-cream* and
free of any and all xanthum gums, thickneners, annatto, preservatives,
carrageenan, polysorbate, nonfat milk solids, added mono/di- glycerides,
cellulose gum and other crap often added by sick lazy @$$holes who have
no concern for anyone other than their own phukking selves.

*Real cream = "sweet" [i.e. unsalted and non-soured], annatto-free,
preservative-free, carrageen-free, carrageenan-free, polysorbate-free,
purely-natural, completely-organic cream made from the milk of healthy
Jersey cows [who graze solely on natural pasture], free of nonfat milk
solids, free of added mono/di- glyceridesm and free of any other crap
often added by sick lazy @$$holes who have no concern for anyone other
than their own phukking selves.

"Thick and low/nonfat"? Thats disgusting!!!!!!!!!!

If you really want to torture me, then make me drink some nonfat,
non-soured, boiled milk that has enough water removed to give it the
thick viscosity of human-spit-foam. Oh and be sure to to mix it up with
a power blender to give it a foamy consistency -- which I truly hate
beyond description!!!! This milk would really stink like the morning
breath of a human who never clean the back of his/her tongue!!!!
Combined with that, it would remind me of a perverse human foaming at
the mouth -- EEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You think you are pestering us, but actually we know the answers and are
just stringing you along...  It's a control thing.  HTH ;-)
