Ok, went to Wal-Mart today. Not even going to mention the craziness there! BUT they didn't have anything labeled "light cream" next to half & half or heavy whipping cream. I decided upon Fat Free half & half after much deliberation. Does anyone know if this will work in substitution?
Thx!

I think it depends upon what you are doing with it. If it is a cake ingredient, it probably will substitute for light cream. If you need to whip it, it won't work. Half and half doesn't whip. HTH

I doubt if it's for whipping; I don't think light cream will whip either and that's what the original recipe called for.
Sorry, I don't know if the fat free half and half will work or not. Is that even a real dairy product or is it just another name for coffee creamer?

Fat Free 1/2 and 1/2 is a dairy product, not a coffee creamer.

In my grocery store light cream is just cream. There is heavy whipping cream, cream, coffee creamer, and half and half all next to one another.
The fat free would have more sugar in it. whether or not it works is definitely gonna depend on what it is for.
