    I'm not a big fan of the full-fat stuff. I can take about 1/2 cup of the "lite." I do like using it for baking some desserts, though, and it is pretty good instead of cream in my coffee.

    We saw it at Sam's Club at the beginning of October

    Dh & the kids love it. Me not so much (too thick). But we didn't get any because it was $5 for a half gallon!!!! I know it wasn't that much last year!!!

    I always keep two 1L cartons of it in the fridge per week. It's sort of my guilty obsession at Christmas time.

    I love it. I have to mix it half/half with my lactose milk though. I might get a carton this week if the $25 budget allows.

    Not a big fan myself but got it for the kiddos this week. I don't remember it in stores this early... Has it always been out before Halloween?

    I love the stuff, but make my own as I don't like the nutmeg, I prefer cinnamon instead of the nutmeg. (if you haven't tried cinnamon instead of the nutmeg, try it,it really is yummie!) And you can ALWAYS leave out the booze so the kids can enjoy it too.
    Here are a few really good recipes for homemade egg nog.
