Europeans have been finding out what ‘coffee creamer’ is in America and the transatlantic divide has never felt wider
Time now to return to the cultural chasm that exists between America and, well, basically everywhere else.
But in this case it is specifically Europe we are talking about, in particular these Euroepans who are finding out what ‘coffee creamer’ is for the first time.

Sure, you’ve probably got a good idea, but the delight – such as it is – in the detail in this case.

Coffee mate is a pretty popular one and these are the ingredients. I tried explaining coffee creamer to an Australian oomf once and she did NOT like the idea that it’s mostly water sugar and oil pic.twitter.com/2vaE6QykSw

i thought it was like, flavoured heavy cream with less fat/less thick but apparently it doesn't have milk???

I'd expect cream as in whipped milk, yeah.
But going through some coffee creamer ingredients they apparently feature copious amounts of sugar and list literal OIL as main ingredient. I'd never expect that in a million years.
