Over strawberries - YES. Elmlea tastes shit.

In cooking - no.

yes elmlea is generally eaten (drunk?) by common people

depends what you're using it for, i think.

Elmlea tastes ok in my coffee
cream is better poured over my cheesecake

yick ! never had elmlea and wouldn't want to

Is is some sort of cream substitute?

If so, I'd rather go without and eat less cream

elmlea sucks

but I don't really like cream either

we picked our own as well soooo yummy,picked asparagus as well

What exactly is it? Is it UHT cream?

Just read that it contains hydrogenated vegetable oil.

I think I'll give it a miss!

Yeesh!

it is to cream what marg is to butter

ie it will do but isn't as good

It is vile stuff, stands out a mile whether cooked or uncooked. I don't get what the point is.

In my mind it lives with Sunny D and Smash, i.e. nasty imitation of something that is not much cheaper and so no point in eating it.

I just don't get elmlea. Why not buy cream? Even tinned cream is much nicer.

a cream girl here. elmlea doesn't work as well in banoffee pie.

I used to buy it till I read the ingredients.

Synthetic stuff, Elmlea. Cream much nicer.

I use Elmlea. My local Londis doesn't do cream.

Can you get tinned cream any more? Just realised that pre-DH tinned peaches with tinned cream was one of my favourite comfort foods, but I haven't had it in years.

yes you can
tis with the condensed milk in tesco

Mmmmmm condensed milk....

One must always be ready for a carbonara!

My local shop stocks elmlea not cream and I use it in cooking (savoury things). It's fine. Can't tell the difference in a pasta/cream/parmesan type dish.

Ooo, goody! I think that the baby is craving some tinned cream and peaches.
