White Death

One of the (very) small changes I've made to my daily routine lately is that I'm taking cream and sugar in my morning coffee.

I had for a long time been using a cream/sugar substitute which shall remain nameless, but which I've seen others refer to as "White Death". Now, I just flat don't believe that using a cream or sugar substitute in your coffee is going to kill you or make you grow a third eye or anything*, so I'm sorry to disappoint the organic food alarmists. It's just that now, for some reason, when I go to put "cream" and "sugar" in my coffee, I would like for it to be - you know -  cream and sugar, and not something that, if it were processed differently, could be plastic or house paint. I've just gotten funny that way (yes, I know "gotten" isn't a real word).

*In fact, my wife and I delighted to call the stuff White Death as we poured it into our coffee for years... "Pass the White Death, please"... or, "More White Death, dear?"...

Well, chemically speaking, since these are but analogs of cream and sugar; these are essentially 'cream' and 'sugar'.

"which I've seen others refer to as 'White Death'."

And I thought 'White Death' were referring to White People dressed up in white KKK costumes out and about itching for a lynching.
