Try an Amish store. I'm in SW Michigan and we have several Amish stores
around here and they carry it. Its dirt cheap too! Less than $2 a container.

Have you heard of vanilla paste? You use it like liquid
vanilla.

Van-O-Van
Powdered vanilla! This synthetic vanilla product enables you to flavor
candies and icings with absolutely no danger of thinning out. Its pure
white color is preferred by bakers everywhere because it does not
discolor white icings. About twice as strong as average household
vanilla. Van-O-Van has a shelf-life of about 1 year. May turn brown if
left uncovered.

Ugh.

You know that dry synthetic vanillin costs about $100/ton wholesale at
the factory, right? The biggest cost is shipping & packaging.

Have you ever heard of vanilla paste? Apparently it's used
in the same proportions as liquid. Not sure why it's
preferable over liquid, but the quality is top knotch:
bourbon vanilla beans.

well... You do know that you can get fresh rolled REAL vanilla sticks, and
use a garlic gricer ( I use a coffee grinder on fine) and It's real! if
it's fresh, it's strong! doesn't take much

What the heck is a vanilla stick, and in what sense is it 'real'?

Oh, my goodness. I'm flashing back to college philosophy classes.

Sometimes it's just a bean.

How do you use vanilla beans? Seriously?

If I have a recipe that calls for a 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract and I
have the real thing, how do I substitute for the extract? And in what
amounts?
