I'm trying the Laird Superfood Creamer right now. To me the taste is fine. It's got a good bit of fat and leaves a mess in the cup so I'm weighing the cleanup hassle vs taste. It does contribute 115 calories for 2 tblsps so there is some nutritional benefit. I'm gram counting for an upcoming sheephunt. We'll see.

I use the coffee mate sugar free French Vanilla. Not the creamer but the powder. Always have. Always will. I also don’t mind drinking it black and if I opt for the French press attachment with my jet boil that’s the way to go. But the coffee mate is pretty solid.

This stuff is really good. You can also buy powdered cream. Mix that with nido powdered milk and sugar but it wont be as good as this.

I have no idea if you can get these in the US as im in australia but i use these all the time and they taste great sometimes i just drink them at home too. I just did 2 weeks in the US and didnt like any of the creamer stuff at the hotels.

@huntabsarokee drinks some type of instant that you just add water, hot or cold, and it makes a coffee drink with foam on top. Maybe you’d like it. I drink mine hot and black, so I’ve never tried it. Hopefully he’ll chime in
I agree, the pike place by Starbucks is great instant coffee, I drink black but do like creamer here and there. These r some of the best instant coffees I’ve ever had

Also haven’t found any, I’d rather drink it black than the substitutes I’ve tried.
This is where I am with it. I much prefer "cream" (cream/milk/half&half), but not only have an immense dislike for substitutes, but am also a little leery of all the exotic ingredients listed.

A friend lives in a very remote area and doesn't bother keeping cream (or much else that's actually fresh), just buys discount store creamer, which is a nasty copy of an already nasty product. Our office is tough on keeping cream because I'm the only one using it and most goes bad, so our office manager stocks powdered creamer and it too is disgusting.

I just learned to enjoy it without cream, although I do routinely use it at home.

just good old Coffee Mate original. Put enough for the hunt in a snack baggie

but after I read your epic description of how creamer tastes and the thread title, I'm questioning if I really like it lol

I don't mind the SB vias (french roast and their blonde) black for a few days, but can't go 300 like @william schmaltz

and I've thrown in good ol' Swiss Miss (mix?) hot chocolate packet and make a mocha, and get another 120+ cals (of sugar lol) and I like it.

I'm a black and bitter guy, but my partner loves the Laird superfood creamer. We've tried it all, moo moos for road trips is the fav but Laird goes to the backcountry.
