nutpods unsweetened Half & Half Dairy-Free Coffee Creamer

Nutpods answers the plant based diet in a tasty way. I’ve tried many plant based substitutes, but nutpods tastes the best. I usually have the half and half substitute. Comes in many flavors also tasty!

I am a heavy half and half user I swing a lot of cold brew iced coffee through the day.... My cholesterol is a bit elevated and I'm going to try making some dietary changes half and half is one of them. I just got this today and really had no expectations.... But I must say it's fantastic! While it doesn't make the coffee as light colored as half and half it gives it the flavor and the body of half and half.. I am very happy! 😋😋

Really not too bad at all. Still waiting on my "other" name brand creamer which takes a week to get. This is about the consistency of half and half and does change the color of coffee, though only about half as much as the real thing. It's also nice and white out of the container, and it's shelf stable! EDIT: I've compared quite a few non-dairy creamers, reading ingredients, looking for thickness, body, color, spinning them all in my frother - brands from Amazon and from the supermarket fridge section, and Nut Pods is the best. I've been dedicated to a dairy-elimination diet, and have now (it's been a couple months) started to add things back to see what happens. I'm finding I can tolerate some dairy, so I've also been spinning whole cow's milk in the frother. All said and done, cow's milk is the bee's knees, and Fairlife makes one which is lactose-free (they use a filtering process which not change the color of the milk), but Nut Pods finishes respectably! It's better than extra creamy Oat Milk from the major players, especially when frothing and blending with coffee, and despite that the Chobani and Sown oat milks are very good for what they are. I did not test any soy milks. But they wouldn't have won any contests! I'm new to this stuff, but as a lifelong (60 years) milk aficionado, having had to mix things up, thinking for a second I'd never eat pizza or ice cream again ... I'd be happy with Nut Pods if it were all I could put in my coffee. They've cracked the coconut code!

Update: I'm finishing up my second case of this, so have been using for over a month. With each new quart, I have been changing the amount of stevia added. I DO NOT like sweetened or flavored creamer, but have been trying to mimic the natural sweetness of dairy cream and dairy half and half. Today I opened a new quart and tried 6 drops of liquid stevia. Result: Boom! It is now very similar to the taste of Ripple Half & Half and no longer has the 'blah' cardboard taste of plant based creamer. The 'sweetness' is very similar to dairy cream and 6 drops of stevia seems to be the flavor 'sweet spot' (pun not intended). I am enjoying my morning tea again. Yay! I used original NutPods in my morning tea for over a decade, until I discovered Ripple last year. OMG that Ripple Half and Half is amazing! However, it has sunflower oil as its second ingredient which always creeped me out. But, the taste for a non dairy half and half was outstanding. Fast forward a year and I decided I needed to sacrifice the taste for a healthier option: enter NutPods Half & Half. Verdict? Well, its better than the original NutPods, but still no where near a half and half flavor or texture. I don't hate it but I'm going to keep buying it because its healthier than the Ripple. I added 2 drops of stevia to the last quart to see if I could bring the flavor to a more traditional dairy cream flavor...which has a touch of sweetness to it. I liked it better but am going to try 3 drops of liquid plain stevia to the next quart and see if that ups the taste just a little. This stuff is pricey but like I said, it doesn't have added oil which makes it a winner in my book.

Great substitute for dairy! Good flavor and lightens coffee the way half and half does.
