    When I was studying chemistry in Uni, one of the first things we were taught was "real" vanilla and artificial vanilla have the exact same taste. It is a chemical equation and it's identical.

      I had not heard of imitation vanilla until college when my roommate used my vanilla extract and asked if it were imitation or real. She wasn't correct but at the time I had no idea, but she said she would use five times the qty in the recipe if it were the imitation stuff she usually used. I could not work that out, how it was any cheaper if you had to use 5 times the amount when the real stuff was five times the price, that's the same cost per recipe. But I was a 'math' person and she was not so I never got an answer. That was twenty years ago and I still think of that every time I see vanilla. I dont use it often enough to really know the details of either vanilla extract but I was interested to hear Frugal Mommy, in a different video, explain using imitation vanilla in smoothies because it didn't have that alcohol tang taste of real vanilla extract...I haven't heard it that way and am interested.
      BTW, my college roommate was making ice cream from real snow using a recipe so a lot of extra vanilla might have even okay for that one recipe anyway. Who knows. It was good, I think.

    O.K. I love Amy immensely and agree about the vanilla thing. There have been multiple studies done that show that artificial vanilla flavoring can't be separated from the real thing in a blind taste test. But then, SHE GRATES NUTMEG!!! I have never ever seen a whole clove, nut, whatever it is, of nutmeg in my grocery store. I have some ground nutmeg in my pantry, purchased at Dollar Tree, but I never use the stuff.. Amy, you've a lot of splaining to do!!

    • @freakinfrugal5268
      @freakinfrugal5268  5 років тому +2

      You would not believe how cheap that nutmeg was! I was amazed - cheaper than the ground stuff - it was with the Hispanic foods section of the store. The little bag was less than a dollar as I recall and had at least 3 nutmeg nuts in it. It has lasted me quite a while. But I am not saying one should use cheap spices and extracts versus expensive ones. I mean the choice is up to the cook and their budget. I am just saying that people who buy the expensive 'real' stuff shouldn't be snobs and put down people who buy the less expensive versions.

    You can save yourself alot of money on vanilla by making it on your own. Add several vanilla beans to a bottle of vodka (or another alcohol of your choice). Close up the bottle for several weeks, shaking about one time weekly. In a couple of months you will have amazing vanilla for a fraction of the cost.

    • @freakinfrugal5268
      @freakinfrugal5268  5 років тому

      But how much do the whole beans cost. How much vodka for one bead pod?

    • @NeatNoodle
      @NeatNoodle 5 років тому +1

      @@freakinfrugal5268 the beans can be expensive especially if you buy them in a whole foods store. You can buy them online for about a dollar each if you buy them in a package of 10-20 (I haven't looked recently). Then you just slice then down the middle exposing the beans without pulling them apart. I usually added three beans to a litre of cheap vodka. If you just made a fifth, you could probably get by with one bean. I use imitation vanilla when I am out of homemade, and have no problem with it, I just prefer the stuff I make. Not throwing shade on imitation, just sharing some information. Love your channel!

    While pure maple syrup isn't cheap, it's still less expensive and a fantastic substitute for real vanilla. I wasn't an "elitist" but only baked with real vanilla, until in a pinch found that maple syrup works just as well... maybe better even!
