The "I'm Moderately Older, Answer This Dumb Question" Poll

[Rama]

Do you? Are you compulsed to stir your sour cream before doing a dollop? Or do you spoon it out of the tub in all its solid glory? Do you pour out the settled liquid or mix it back in?

It's my birthday, answer me this. It's been a burner for years.

Lurker here, I don't do sour cream, but I just wanted to wish you a Happy birthday Rama! Enjoy the day.

Y'all are (mostly) heathens.

Happy birthday @rama!!!!

I don't like sour cream but based on DH's habits, no mixing. We pour out the watery liquid from sour cream and yogurt.

I'm confused by the question. What are you putting the sour cream on?

[doodler]

Happy Birthday Rama!

For the record, I pour out the liquid, then use the sour cream. No mixing.

Anything? Normal foods that are topped with sour cream?

Happy birthday Rama!

I don't eat sour cream but for yogurt I always stir the liquid back in. You're not supposed to do that??

[bex15]

Happy Birthday Rama!! Any fun plans today?

[madamewaffles]

The liquid is just whey. It's just a normal chemical reaction to when oxygen comes in contact with the cream. Avoid this by storing it upside down in the fridge. Or just stir it up.

[madamewaffles]

And! Happy birfday, lady! 🎉

I don't care what it is, it fucks up the TRUE AND ONLY CORRECT texture of sour cream. /gavel

I find the less ingredients in the container, the less likely there is separation. I usually get Daisy brand and its only ingredient is cream, and I think I've never had to drain/stir. But you are right, texture is everything in all things sour cream!

[wannabmama]

Happy birthday Rama !!!

(I'm team stir it all here, btw!)

[katietopaz]

Sour cream, greek yogurt, other various things that don't have a...consistent consistency when they settle: I stir it all. It bugs me so much NOT to.

[jax1182014]

Happy birthday! I love the squeezable package

[kawaiikitsune]

I pour out the liquid and then give it a quick stir.

Happy, happy birthday Rama.
