When making a coffee at the office, what could have been a hasty getaway from a conversation at the coffee station is foiled by the little coffee creamers that have to be individually opened.

There should be a device wherein they can be inserted that crushes the cream outwardly into one's coffee cup.

       Crushing a creamer? I think you're going to make a mess of your tie...

       That's the status quo that I hope this device will change. There should be some sort of spout.

       Something like a large garlic press ?

       Ha! Yes, but only less garlicky.

       a stabber and a tipper rather than a crusher.

       How about a little squeeze bottle shaped like a breast that pops open and squirts milk from the nipple under pressure?

       I was thinking more along the lines of a fake cows teet hanging down that you would stroke to get your creamer.

       Would a gravity-feed bag-based dispenser (such as used for institutional milk machines) be workable for ultra-pasteurized coffee creamer? I wouldn't think any bacteria would be able to travel "upstream".

       why ever not?

       This reminds me of the time right after the birth of my child when we ran out of coffee creamer and I had to resort to the REAL thing. That was the best coffee, and come to think of it, I haven't had any colic or ear infections since then.
