[Sca-cooks] Vanilla Extract --Thank you!

>  Daniel used to have some Mexican vanilla extract,

Some Mexican vanilla does not contain vanilla or is vanilla 
"contaminated" with some coumarin-containing substance. Coumarin 
smells like vanilla (many natural vanilla-scented plants contain 
coumarin), but it's not good for the liver.

Despite the fact that vanilla originated in Mexico, I just wouldn't 
trust Mexican vanilla.

Perhaps they have improved industry oversight and i am just fear-mongering.
