Gah! No, not another Cool Whip answer!!

Here's some info:

"Here’s what whipped cream is made of:

cream, sugar.

You can make it at home in 5 minutes. Your 10 year old can do it too.

Here is the ingredient list for Kraft’s Cool Whip:

Water, Corn Syrup, Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (Coconut and Palm Kernel Oils), High Fructose Corn Syrup, Less than Two Percent of Sodium Caseinate (from Milk), Natural and Artificial Flavor, Xanthan and Guar Gums, Polysorbate 60, Sorbitan Monostearate, Beta Carotene (Color).

Whoa. What’s going on here?

As usual, the fat is out, the fillers come in. Take some water, mix in xantham and guar gums as thickeners, hydrogenate some oils to make them semisolid, add lots of sweet, and cover it all up with artificial flavors to resemble the original.

All this maneuvering to reduce the calorie count.

Bravo!?

I eat fat free cool whip everyday and have lost 97 lbs doing so, and it is delicious.

Home Baking! I make a mean Banana & Walnut Bread and Muffins, the banana bread is 150 calories a slice and a muffin is 120. Use stevia as a sugar replacement or 50:50 sugar:stevia, unsweetened applesauce in place of oil and stoneground wholemeal flour instead of white plain flour. Makes for low cal, low fat, high fibre treats.
