Is it the Coffee Mate one? Because it looks like Amazon has those little single-serve cups of it.
Also, it looks like International Delight put out a similar flavor.
Hopefully your One True Coffee Creamer is not gone for good!
Amazon
This mainly happens to me in the middle of the night. I find that sometimes I need calories when it happens; like my blood sugar is low, or I'm secretly starving. Sometimes I'm just super tired and calories can fake it as sleep. So I keep a case of mini-containers of lowfat milk next to my bed. Usually this kind: https://www.amazon.com/Organic-Valley-Boxes-Plain-Ounces/dp/B00WVSO0BY They don't need to be refrigerated, you can find them on the shelf at the grocery store. I go in another room, I drink my milk, I take some deep breaths, and then I can try again. My husband is also really good about taking over if he hears me start to have a meltdown in the middle of the night, and that helps immensely.
My favorite Creamer and/or My Breakfast Tea there is something so necessary about having the right drink to start my morning off. Things just don't feel right if I can't start my day with the small pillars of my morning routine.
Person probably saw this made up a scenario
You can't buy that online?
Most specialty coffee shops are using these two milk substitutes:
Almond milk

Oat Milk

Try them out and see if you like them. They are becoming the gold standard for milk substitutes.
I've noticed absolutely no difference between homogenized-pasturized fresh whole milk in the United States and in Europe. I use whole milk for my coffee and for cereal--I perhaps use about 1/2 gallon a week.
I have never tried UHT milk, and I avoid like the plague "flavored milk" (such as Nestle Nesquick flavored milk); that stuff tastes like milk-colored syrup to me. (Okay, once in a while I'll get chocolate milk--but I consider it more like liquid chocolate frosting rather than "milk.") The worst are skim flavored milks; those are horrid--though for the elderly, fortified flavored skim milks make an excellent nutritional supplement. (My wife, an RD, has recommended them to patients in her dialysis clinic; there are brands of protein supplements which are basically milk, egg white and other protein sources, sugar and a bunch of random nasty stuff to assure shelf stability.)
And let's be clear. Most "creamers" are not milk. It's some sort of chemical byproduct of some manufacturing process somewhere, and is nasty-ass shit. (Though if you have a milk allergy, I guess you don't have much choice.)
If your parents want a good coffee creamer, either whole (pasteurized/homogenized) fresh milk works, or "half-and-half", which is half fresh milk, half cream. (I find very little half-and-half is needed for coffee.) Both will be sold in the refrigerated sections of a grocery store, and must be kept refrigerated or else will go bad very quickly.
Do not put flavored milk into your coffee, unless you really hate yourself and want to punish yourself for sins from a past life.
No?
Alternatively you can usually find a bag of creamer cups for sale at the largest grocery stores. Aka these things. I've seen an assorted pack once in my life, if your workplace supplies anything like coffee you may be able to request ordering it.

Great snack that can replace cravings for smoothies, shakes, icees, slurpees. I avoid boba shops because they are inconsistent, cost too much, and don't display calorie content (or contain too many calories).
Buy thai tea mix and a tea pot. The tea only takes a few minutes to make but should sit in freezer or fridge for 30~ minutes to cool before adding ice and drinking. Other teas work too. Most teas are 0 calories. I freeze some tea into icecube tray so that I don't have to wait for tea to cool as long. You can also make a big batch of tea and save in fridge if you want.
Boba can be made by hand or boiled from hard (30-60 minutes) or boiled from soft (5 minutes). It is about 80 calories for 1/4 cup.
I use artificial sweeteners and artificial creamers to make the tea sweet and creamy without adding many calories. Make sure to soak the boba in hot sugar water to get them nice and sweet before adding them to your (less sweet) tea. I usually use nut pods or some sort of creamer that has some calories, adding 50-120 more calories to the boba, but you can stick to zero calorie creamers if you want. I hear Stevia is the healthiest zero calorie sweetener, by the way.
Because you want your tea to cool and your hard boba to boil it takes 30 minutes to make but you aren't in the kitchen the whole time. When I get a craving I will start the boba tea and during the 30 minutes I wait. Most of my food cravings pass easily during this time as I know I am about to drink boba. I find it to be very filling by the time I am able to drink it. I find that this is something of a strategy in itself... Having to wait 30 minutes for my snack helps the cravings pass and the snack feels more filling.

This stuff is delicious!
Walden Farms has a calorie-free coffee creamer. It has low reviews on Amazon but I actually really like it. It's thick and heavy so just use a little bit and stir a lot. If you use too much it has a thick, saccharine alcohol-like taste.
If you like chocolate milk, hemp chocolate milk is great and tastes amazing. As another Redditor mentioned, I too like to use different types for different things. My personal favorite is vanilla almond milk. I like to use coconut and cashew milk when I make savory dishes because, well, they both taste savory. I like banana milk with my cereal because I usually have fruity cereal. You can find a good list of pairings here. It honestly depends on you, as there are so many options out there. And, by the way, thank you for making the switch to veganism! 💪🏼
In some places you can already get milk delivered
In New York City, they have been doing local delivery forever, but that's because the density is high enough the deliveries can be hand carried or done by bike.
Yeah actually.
