Isn’t vanilla flavor from beaver anal glands??

It have been impressed that the call of the Whippoorwill is three syllables versus the call of the Bobwhite which is only two syllables.

As long as it’s delicious butt juice, who cares?

Never heard a Whippoorwill sound.
Bob Whites have always been in our pasture and some old home sites. They are drawn to chaparral bushes. We have those all around.

NO! Not vanilla! Ok, I give up. Climate change deserves all my extra tax dollars. Whoops. Don’t have any. Sorry, vanilla. You’ll have to become another sweet memory.

Artificial vanillin is a dirt simple molecule easily and inexpensively synthesized.

Indeed. There is enough artificial vanilla to float several aircraft carriers.
They keep searching for the calamity hook that will make people demand action.

Presumably this sort of claptrap is getting harder to find. I mean, besides a few bitter clingers, who is still talking about climate change?

..ice cream flavour is under threat, and many other dessert staples along with it, according to climate change researchers
at the University of Costa Rica, Uganda U., Haiti International College, U. of Somalia, College of Liberal Arts
at Lichtenstein, and Belgium's KU Leuven university..
I am profoundly not worried..

“Vanilla flavor” is vanillin, the artificial flavoring, which does have a slightly sickly, cloying odor and taste.
But if labeled vanilla, it is actually vanilla, which is phenomenal. Nothing cloying about it.
Ice cream made plain without some vanilla, chocolate, fruit or even green tea is not that great, no matter how good the milk is. And I say that as someone who drinks 2 gallons of delicious whole milk a week.
But as I suspect most vanilla orchids are grown in greenhouses and is hand pollinated, and very little comes from wild vanilla plants.

Just saw a 16 ounce bottle of vanilla extract at Costco for $9.99. It was $30+ a few years back.
