Half and half is half cream half whole milk, homogenized together to make a lightish cream -- rather good at stretching the available cream supply for a nation famous for coffee drinking. Just cream around here tends to be called "heavy whipping cream" to call attention to its full creaminess.
Heavy cream or Devon cream would work as well for the cooking, and doubtless jack up the fat content of the dish.
Ali, I've never asked -- do you like Cobb salad? Not that it has any tuna, but it has the same kind of fun to it as tuna-on-salad.
