Why Booming Demand Is Making Vanilla Taste Worse
Interesting article from Bloomberg about the high global demand for vanilla that's severely affecting its quality, and the government of Madagascar's efforts to fix this.

DietID_TeamDietitians 8yr So fascinating! Vanilla has always been popular, but I think for some of these "fad" foods that pick up steam so quickly, we may see a similar dip in quality to keep up with demand -
JenniferEmilson 8yr Too true Rachna. It's happened with quinoa, chia etc. Always been there, but then trends suddenly spike their demand and quality and pricing are the victims! @Rachna -
DietID_TeamDietitians 8yr Definitely why we need to just embrace more diversity in our diet, and not turn everything into a fad.

BigTasteTinySpace This looks delicious and easy!
Bought a pint of one of the new non-dairy frozen desserts from Ben & Jerry's
Not only is it dairy-free, it's vegan, non-GMO and fairtrade! As if you needed another reason to love these guys. Anyone else pick up a pint?

darkchocolatepeanutbutter The real question is how does it taste???
-
LesleyRozycki @darkchocolatepeanutbutter it's delicious! It's quite creamy for an almond milk base and the coffee flavor is great.

JenniferDoscher I was excited until I read the ingredients. If memory serves, it's load with processed sugar, fillers/thickeners, and preservatives. I'll be passing on this dangerous combo of high fat-high sugar...

SimplySeema Yum! Sounds delicious. Have you used Turmeric before? It's a spice that may help prevent cold/flu and so colorful.

LesleyRozycki @SimplySeema I haven't gotten my hands on any yet, but I'll be sure to try it out! Thanks!

SimplySeema @LesleyRozycki it's great and won't disappoint. Be careful though to avoid getting it on your clothes bc it stains everything yellow.
