What it is

Half & Half Cream is a dairy product made by combining whole milk and light cream. It typically contains 10.5% to 18% milkfat. This mixture provides a richer texture and flavor than milk alone, but is lighter than heavy cream.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add Half & Half Cream to products to provide a creamy texture and rich flavor. It is often found in soups, sauces, desserts, and some frozen entrees to enhance their mouthfeel and taste.

Health notes

Half & Half Cream is a standard dairy product regulated by the FDA, not a food additive. It is a source of fat and calories. There are no specific health controversies associated with Half & Half Cream itself, beyond general dietary considerations for dairy products.

Allergen info

This product contains milk, which is one of the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA.
