I LOVE heavy cream. But it's gotten so expensive and perishes faster than I like.

FWIW, I've mostly switched to coconut cream. My local restaurant supply has a few different brands. So I mix it up. I go thru a box of 12 cans every 2 months are so.

Interesting; where do you buy it? Here in the US the standard grocery store has "heavy whipping cream" which I use. A quart lasts me a week or more; it's only used for coffee for me, and the occasional recipe my wife will make.

But I'm surprised at its longevity.

Thanks for asking. Sorry, I used poor phrasing.

Me too.

I prefer Costco's Darigold Heavy Cream 40% half-gallon. Starts to turn before I can finish it (by myself).

For a while, I'd make large batches of biscuits to use it up faster.

What I meant to say about the coconut cream (milk) is the 13oz cans are more practical for me.

FYI, I prefer these coconut milk and oatmeal products.

Restaurant supply stores are like amazon's selection with costco's prices.

Lastly, elsethread, someone mentioned peanut butter powder. Would love a recommendation. Ideally something without any added sugar.

I appreciate sharing this food / meal prep tips. Every little bit helps, as I'm learning how to "hack" my body.
