Just curious how others take their coffee. I like mine with Splenda and Fat Free half & half.

    At home I take it with Stevia and sugar-free flavored dairy mix. At work, I use Splenda (it's cheaper and we all use it.)

    Black for me. Of course, the key to drinking black coffee is to find tasty coffee that doesn't need sweeteners! I order online from Coffee Fool - that's where I get about 90% of what I drik nowadays.

    I'm down to one coffee a day and right now I've been mixing 2 shots of espresso into my chocolate peanut butter smoothie. It's awesome!

    At home I do splenda and creamer. Right now I'm loving Italian sweet cream flavored, but I don't discriminate. Plain, vanilla and hazelnut also get plenty of love around here.

    I do love H&H in my coffee at home, but I tend not to buy it because my husband has trouble with it.

    When I get coffee out, I get it with sugar and H&H. The only reason I don't use sugar at home is because I tend to have a heavy hand with it, but the Splenda is already perfectly measured in its little yellow packets.

    Really bad coffee: lots of cream & sugar
    Normal coffee: a tablespoon of half & half or cream
    Really good coffee: black

    I will drink it black if there is no cream available. I don't like the powdered creamer stuff. Basically I will drink coffee any way I can get it.

    I LOVE coffee (Love isn't even strong enough of a word). I could not live without my Keurig. I like light roasted coffees. I can't stand the bitterness of the evil gross coffee my work supplies!

    Right now my favorite is Island Coconut. I brew a big 16oz. mug because I don't believe in "little cups" and add 2 international delights almond joy singles (or just one and a mini-moo, depending on how "bad" I want to be) and 2 packets of splenda..... Mmmmm.... OR

    I drink Folgers Columbian with 2 packets of splenda..... OR

    Creme Caramel with an eighth cup of almond milk and 1 pack of splenda.....

    Or a plethora of other flavored coffees with 2 mini-moos/2 splendas.

    It's possible that I have an addiction, but who really cares?

    ETA: And I typically have 2 "cups" a day... At least one is a flavored coffee. And I count it in my water intake *gasp* but since
    I rarely ever drink only 8 glasses of water I figure it doesn't really matter.

    All Hail Keurig!

    Black, no sugar. I do like the taste of coffeemate, but I'm also a cheapskate, so I tend not to buy it.

    I buy a tall skinny late in the mornings, and the rest of the day I have 2 instant coffee's with skim milk and sweetener.

    I do so love my coffee :heart:

    As a former barista I'm ashamed to admit that I don't drink my coffee black -____-

    I like my coffee with 1 tbs of truvia sweetener and a splash of non fat irish creamer.

    That all depends on my my mood. I usually like Long Pour Americano's which I get half sweet and sometimes I make them Americano Mistos, or I'll go with a flavoured Latte. But if were speaking straight up coffee I preffer a French Press as it keeps the flavour of it's natural oils. If it's French Pressed or Brewed coffee I drink it straight up black- my theory is why ruin a good thing?

    Skim milk, no sugar. :) A lot of flavor, but not too bitter.

    Right now I am working on weaning myself down, but I do 2 tbsp of creamer and that is it in my coffee.

    Black espresso, a teaspoon of sugar. Two if I'm sad or tired or if the coffee is dishwater :|

    With Silk French Vanilla Creamer. probably about 1/2" in my cup before i brew my 12 (or 16?)oz. cup in my Keurig. My favorites are Island Coconut, Chocolate Covered Donut, Mountain Blueberry, and Pumpkin Spice, all from Green Mountain Coffees :D

    GEEZ-WHIZ! I just started MFP and after looking at my Silk French Vanilla coffee creamer, I think i'm going to have to replace it! I think it's the worst thing in my whole diet!

    I don't like sweet coffee at all. No sugar or sweeteners for me. Creamers have are too sweet for me. Look at the ingredients and you'll see corn syrup or some other kind of sweetener in them.

    I do like half and half (REAL half and half, fat free half and half isn't half and half). I'll give up calories on just about everything else but not on my half and half.

    I can drink it black, too, if it's a really good coffee.

    Every morning I get up at 0430, I put on a pot of coffe and measure out 4 cups, shower, fix a cup of coffee with a teaspoon of sugar and a bit of flavored creamer. The rest goes into my travel mug with 2 teapoons of sugar and flavored creamer. I get my gun, go to post and enjoy the rest.
