Mexican Vanilla and Other Vanillas
There is something unique about the taste of Mexican vanilla. We used to buy it only because it was cheap. It was always an item that we brought back across the boarder when visiting Mexico and over the years, after many visits south of the border, our family has really grown to love the flavor of it. It's kind of like Mexican beer, you can't quite put your finger on it, but it just tastes different, more, "down home."
Do you like Mexican vanilla? What is your favorite type of vanilla to bake with?

I have some I bought in Mexico and Costco Vanilla too. One son likes the Mexican one, the other prefers the Costco one. I like that they are willing to bake, so do not worry about which one they use.
It is pricey, but a bottle lasts a long time and we do lots of baking and dessert making in this house.
