Gotta ask a weird question.
Is it a regional thing to get a coffee with "cream and sugar"? You know how like there are regional ways to refer to a hoagie/sub/grinder or pop/soda? Is "cream and sugar" in coffee such a thing?
At each and every SB we went to last week, both at US and WDW, I ordered an iced coffee with cream and sugar and each and every time there was a confused look on the face of the barista/cashier.
Cream - "Do you want, like, milk in there?" "We have heavy cream. Is that what you mean?" Do some areas of the country routinely put in full cream in coffee as opposed to half-and-half?
I'm aware that table sugar crystals don't dissolve in cold coffee. Locally, when I ask for an iced coffee with C&S they put in simple syrup from behind the counter. That seemed like the most bizarre request when we made it.
It wasn't just one cashier. It was a similar confusion at the SBs in all 4 WDW parks and the 3 at Universal.
Anyone else experience this? What am I doing wrong when ordering?
