Things I’ve tried to call cream when ordering coffee with cream in San Francisco
  • Real cream?
  • True cream?
  • Unwatery milk?
  • Thick milk?
  • Fatty milk?
  • Cream cream (not milk)?
  • Half cream?
  • Fat cream?
  • HARD CREAM?

I actually thought it was indeed “hard cream” and asked a great many people if they could provide me with... HARD CREAM. Eventually I was quietly informed that the real term was “heavy cream”. It still didn't seem like proper cream to me, but close enough.
