Vanilla Ice Cream

from How not to travel

How is it that vanilla is such an expensive spice, yet so many vanilla-flavored products are very cheap? How is vanilla produced and harvested in so many different countries despite the fact that the only insect that pollinates it can only be found in Mexico? And what does the word “vanilla” even mean? For this episode, Kiona and Luis take a pint of vanilla ice cream out of the freezer to discuss a dessert that we often unfairly consider dull, but in fact has an incredibly rich history.
