Is the new alcoholic whipped cream going to be a successful way to stop people from doing whippits?

Whippits do not have anything to do with alcohol.

People doing whippits are doing it for the nitrous oxide, the huffer and the alcoholic are different beasts entirely.

And I’d guess the alcohol content is negligible.

I don’t see a correlation.

Why would they be foolish?

I was joking. I was poking fun at the FDA’s recent “Big Brother” tendencies.

While it does target young customers as FourLoko did, it doesn’t have the same amount of alcohol and definitely not the caffeine/booze combo that was so deadly. I’m actually really interested in trying it.

Removed by me.

Do Cream and Whipped Lightening not have nitrous in them? I thought they needed it to dispense the cream. So then you could get both drunk and high.

@papayalily Once the nitrous is gone, the cream wouldn’t have any way of getting out, safe of opening the can.

@buckyboy28 But isn’t that true of both?

@papayalily Yes, but people are doing whippits for the nitrous, not the cream. In the way you described, they’d be trying to get both, which would be tough.

@buckyboy28 Oh. Well, it’s not going to replace regular whipped cream, so I don’t know how it would cut down on the whippits. Same as how coming out with a new frozen dinner won’t cut down on whippits.

If the FDA was really Big Brother, they’d ban diet soft drinks.

@BarnacleBill But not regular soft drinks?

@papayalily: Aspartame is a fucked up thing to put in food and it’s in nearly every diet drink. Next on the list is HFCS, if everything stuck with sugar the world would be a much better place.

Diet soft drinks are linked to metabolic syndrome and obesity.

Actually the FDA is sort of like Big Brother, but the thing is the main goal is profit. As long as it doesn’t make a lot of us immediately sick, and as long as it brings in a lot of money to the companies who have paid the right people, it’s all good.

I’ve been beating the drums against hydrogenated oils for over 25 years, and everyone’s laughed at us who insisted it was bad, because after all, the FDA wouldn’t let anything in our food chain that would hurt us, would it?. The FDA still thinks it’s OK for us to eat hydrogenated oils, but does that make them safe? Eventually it will become politically and financially expedient to outlaw hydrogenated oils, but not likely this year.

@BarnacleBill Here’s a fascinating history of how Aspartame got through the FDA. Very enlightening. http://www.321recipes.com/aspartame.html

This is like asking if passing out free condoms will stop plane crashes. I could give a better answer if I knew how the new alkie whipped is packaged…is it in a tub like Cool Whip or in a can like regular nitrous propelled Whip. At the same price, with nitrous, I’d opt for the alcohol whip. But this is a whole different animal than whippets…. A can of whip is like looking at Playboy, Whippets are like fucking the Centerfold. Economics is also a factor, if by chance there is a link there….it would cost less to cop heroin than to buy enough whipped cream to catch even a hint of an alcohol buzz..
