Today is whipped Cream Trivia uselessness Razz
Whipped Cream Trivia
Think you knew everything about whipped cream? Think again. Check out our extensive list of whipped creame trivia.

A typical value for canned whipped cream is $45/gallon. Imagine filling your gas tank with that!
It is impossible to make whipped cream in a plastic container. Copper pots will produce the best, largest volume whipped creme.
Confectioner's sugar can be added towards the end of the whipping process to increase the cream's volume. To reduce it, add it at the beginning of the process.
Whipped creme has been featured in more than 10,000 movies around the world.
The colder cream is when you whip it, the easier it will be to make whipped cream. Cream that is too warm will not whip.
Nitrous oxide, the gas used to propel whipped cream out of the cans sold in stores, is better known by dentists as laughing gas.
Confectioners do not use this type of whipped cream because the nitrous oxide causes it to turn into liquid in as little as 30 minutes.
Cool Whip was invented by Tommy Finucane and introduced by Birds Eye in 1967. It is not real whipped cream, but has less calories and keeps longer than the real thing.
Chantilly cream, also known as crème Chantilly is a French whipped cream that contains vanilla and sugar. Invented by François Vatel in the 1600s, the cream is used by bakers in deserts.
In its canned form, whipped cream can be compressed by as much as four times its original size.

If you sneeze too hard, you can fracture a rib. If you try to suppress a
sneeze, you can rupture a blood vessel in your head or neck and die.

The first has actually happened to me! I didn't know until a little while after. I guess it's story time.

I'm allergic to cats. And my cousin has 2 cats. (I think he's trying to kill me). Well, both of those cursed cats jumped on me, and I sneezed so hard, my stomach hurt. I didn't think much of it, until a few days later it still hurt. I went to get an x-ray, and sure enough, I broke 2 ribs.


Anyways, back to useless facts!
