What it is

Organic vanilla pods are the dried, cured fruit of the vanilla orchid, a vine native to Mexico. The pods are harvested when green and then undergo a lengthy curing process involving sun-drying and sweating, which develops their characteristic rich, sweet aroma and flavor.

Why it's used

Vanilla is one of the world's most popular flavors, used to enhance sweetness and add depth to a wide range of foods. It is commonly found in baked goods, desserts, ice cream, chocolate, beverages, and dairy products.

Health notes

Vanilla is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a flavoring. It is not typically consumed in amounts that would pose a health risk. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated vanilla and its components. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical dietary intake.

Allergen info

Vanilla is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
