woke up and someone spilled vanilla extract all over my dash, so as punishment you strange little beasties are getting all the VANILLA FACTS i know:
vanilla is the 2nd most expensive spice in the world (2nd to saffron)
which is why more than 99% of what we call "vanilla extract" is actually vanillin (vanilla's dominant flavor compound) and is not extracted from real vanilla.
luckily, even professionals struggle to tell the difference when it comes to things like baked goods. but there is a distinct difference in non-heat treated products like vanilla ice cream. real vanilla has a more complex, individualized flavor profile.
why is vanilla so expensive? because it is a ridiculously delicate & demanding crop. complete primadonna.
vanilla beans come from vanilla orchids. these crazy flowers bloom for A SINGLE DAY and have to be HAND-POLLINATED in a process that is exhausting, delicate, and requires specialist knowledge passed down over generations.
then, if you're lucky, you get vanilla beans.
which then require months of further specialized treatment.
the entire process takes about a year and can go wrong at any stage
vanilla has been cultivated for over 800 years (possibly much longer). the first known cultivators are the Totonac, an indigenous people of Mexico.
the Aztecs used it as a sweetener to balance out the bitter taste of cocoa. it was popular in a drink called xocolatl--the precursor to modern hot chocolate!
it is only pollinated by a very specific orchid bee!!!
which is why no fruit could be grown outside of Mexico until the 1800s
Edmond Albius, born into slavery, invented the pollination method we still use today--launching a global industry when he was just 12 years old.
today, the majority of the world's vanilla is grown in Madagascar
if you want real vanilla, read the labels carefully--it's harder to find than you think!
in conclusion, those tiny black specks you see in fancy vanilla ice cream? those are vanilla bean seeds! itty bitty orchid seeds!!! they are delicious and also a PRISSY BITCH!

#Vanilla Extract#i open the tumblr app and immediately my nostrils are invaded by the overwhelming stench of vanilla#also if you want real vanilla extract at a discount: check out stores like HomeGoods TJMaxx Marshalls etc#the foodstuffs section tends to have fancy nonperishables for much cheaper than upscale grocery stores#you can get things like saffron truffles fancy oils at surprising prices#still expensive but like. 50% cheaper#or just shoplift if that's your thing i won't tell you how to live your life#did i just spend an hour writing this? yes. why did i do that? i don't KNOW

Oil Prices Slide as the Global Economy Slows Down in 2023 Says IMF
On Tuesday, the oil prices fell from their highest levels on a stronger dollar in a month after the International Monetary Fund (IMF) signaled a warning that 2023 will be tougher as the major economies are now weakening. The U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude was down by 1.0% or 77 cents with the price marking $79.49 a barrel. The Brent crude future on the other hand dipped by 1.1% or 98 cents with a price marking $84.93 a barrel by 0148 GMT. The reason for the price slide is the strengthening of the U.S. dollar.
Not only oil but dollar-denominated commodities got more expensive for other countries holding different currencies. IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva said that 2023 will be tougher than 2022 in terms of global economic growth because the financial acceleration is slowing down for the United States, Europe, and China. However, oil prices increased by 2% and more on Friday as WTI and Brent closed the year 2022 up 6.7% and 10.5%, respectively.
On 3 January 2023, the Societe Generale analysts said that in the week ending on 27 December 2022, commodities saw a bullish flow at $12.3 billion, the single largest weekly bullish flow for that particular year. The analysts also said that it is Brent where the commodity has the largest flow, and saw a bullish flow of $3.4 billion as Russia outlined to the EU its response and G7 put on a price cap on their nation’s crude exports that happen for the third parties.

Oil prices fell for the second month in a row
Oil prices fell for the second month in a row
Oil prices on the world markets rose last week, but throughout July they fell for the second month in a row, because the slowdown in the growth of the world economy could lead to a weakening of the demand for energy products.
The price of a barrel on the London market increased last week by 0.7 percent to $103.97, while on the American barrel it rose 4.1 percent to $98.62.
Despite this, in July…
