The worst part about all of this, if you have some one in your life that has allergies, is that natural flavors can be literally anything animal or plant and they don’t have to tell you what it is. If it says flavoring I just have to put the item down. We need more transparent labeling, but I guess if they have to write crushed up bugs for color or beaver secretion for flavor they are not going to be able to sell as much.

@@adde9506 Well, everything starts out as something else. You are what you eat, and that's because you're just made of other things. A strawberry, for example, needs soil to grow and to just exist in general, and the soil is necessary because it contains nutrients. The nutrients come from poop and rotting animals, plants, etc. Everything contains and is made of something it got from somewhere else, and that something that leads to being in a living thing which leads to you eating that thing always has to start somewhere. Everything contains something which, at some point, was some very unappealing and possibly deadly chemical. Everything you find in a plant or animal was not always in a plant or animal to begin with. What matters isn't what it was, but what it is. Like how cow milk is made from cow blood, but it's not blood anymore, so it doesn't matter.

@Toastmaster_5000
@Toastmaster_5000 6 лет назад
Just for some clarification about vanilla: Vanilla beans will taste different because they contain more molecules than just vanillin, but, those molecules get destroyed when heat at high temperatures (like when baking something). Vanillin, meanwhile, is the only flavor that truly remains. That being said, if you're cooking something, always go for artificial vanilla. If you have the opportunity to add vanilla while the product is cold, use natural vanilla. This is why a lot of recipes (such as puddings) call to add vanilla _after_ you're done cooking.
@adde9506
@adde9506 5 лет назад
Interesting. But I'm going to disagree here. Not on the science, but on the flavor. I've cooked with both and the natural vanilla definitely tastes better, even cooked. I've never been rich enough to use vanilla seeds or paste, but between the two liquids there is a huge difference. That said, if you personally don't notice a difference, save the money and use vanillin.
@cferracini
@cferracini 5 лет назад
in my modest opinion, unless you got the natural stuff that is stronger even if you bake, just don't put anything if it's a cookie or a cake. Honestly, brown sugar has a stronger flavor and since I started to ignore vanilla in those two NO ONE ever noticed the absence of vanilla. They only noticed in sugar cookies because no molasses from brow sugar to overpower.
@thomas1918
@thomas1918 4 года назад
I'm sorry but that is completely false. Maybe some people don't have the same sensitivity to the flavours in vanilla as I do (I've been baking for most of my life, always from scratch) but I can tell instantly if artificial vanilla was used and it puts me right off. It has a subtle almond like flavour which I absolutely hate. It doesn't even compare to the real stuff and that includes when it is heated.
@johnthakidiyel5468
@johnthakidiyel5468 4 года назад
To all the people saying natural vanilla is better, I'm not disagreeing. At least some of you and probably most of you feel the difference due to the placebo effect. If you read about it or even watch videos from SciShow about how strong the placebo effect is, you might have a different opinion.

@@johnthakidiyel5468 100% not the placebo effect. It took me a few years to realize what the taste was when my bf's family baked, I didn't know they used fake vanilla. I think its proof enough that no good bakery ever has used artificial vanilla because anyone with a sensitive pallet can easily tell the difference. artificial vanilla doesn't taste like the real one at all to me; i get an almond like flavour.

Surprised you didn't mention the banana flavor.

@battleon81
@battleon81 6 лет назад
Well, the bananas we have today are not genetically modified. They are just a different cultivar: the Cavendish. The Cavendish is as genetically modified as most other crops in that it is a product of selective breeding. The old banana cultivar was the Gros Michel, but it was wiped out by a fungal disease. It isn't extinct, but it is no longer commercially viable here in the US. Apparently it is still being produced in eastern Asia though.

As a person with food allergies I have an appreciation for artificial flavours. For example, one of the vitamins I take is a mix of three flavours one of which is strawberry. Since the flavour is made from real strawberries I cannot take those and end up tossing out 1/3 of the bottle. If the flavour was artificial I wouldn't need to worry about strawberry proteins finding their way in.

I wish you all had touched on the problem that food companies can use “Natural Flavors” on the label instead of listing the ingredients you’re discussing here. They may not cause reactions in most people, but anyone who is allergic to one of those ingredients can’t buy anything with “Natural Flavors” on the label. Which is nearly everything in a grocery store unless you can afford to do all your shopping at specialty stores.

Artificial vanilla extract is crazy because sometimes chefs say it's better to use artificial in the likes of baking. If it's raw (example: added at the end for ice creams and puddings), the real stuff is better. Maybe the heat of the oven does things to the extra natural parts. I didn't bake much in the past, so the real stuff was fine for a long time. I also feel that artificial, especially yeast-grown can be better. We've been using yeast to make bread for centuries Ann Reardon did a story on food colorings and how artificial ones might actually be safer.

I believe the same reason you gave for the more nuanced flavor of real Vanilla is also why some people can eat foods with natural nitrates but not the artificially made sodium nitrates. Nitrates are notorious for triggering migraines in a lot of people, but only the artificial ones. I know this from personal experience along with talking to other migraine people. I suspect in the natural form, like celery juice or powder, the other components modify how the nitrates respond in the body.

Vanilla has a flavour much richer and tastier than plain vanillin though. So I only buy products with vanilla flower extracts in them and avoid those which only contain vanillin without all the other compounds. Hopefully one day we will be able to artificially produce more of those compounds through biotechnology, making the artificial flavour taste much closer to vanilla extract. Then I'll switch to the artificial flavour.
@ooooneeee
@ooooneeee 6 лет назад
ita-eng subber it will be possible by engineering microorganism which produce all of those compounds at once, maybe by directly transferring genes for necessary Enzymes.

What you fail to address is the set of contaminants that can be present is different when flavors are made in the lab. Things like benzene would be more likely present if the flavor were solvent-extracted, derived from petrochemicals, or produced from toxic reactants. For example, caffeinated drinks had traces of chlorinated hydrocarbons until industry switched to supercritical CO2 extraction. Some artificial sweeteners link chlorine into the "natural" sugar molecule.

High5 for mentioning the nature fallacy... I reckon it is one of the most commonly abused belief in developed countries and bio shops and hipster stores capitalize on the benevolence of uneducated people who mean well but all they end up doing is spending the big bucks on some veggies infested by some common fungal pest ending up worse than the non-bio alternative. Same goes for flavourings... I usually defuse this fallacy by offering the believer to go and try a bite of this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amanita_muscaria
@klakkat
@klakkat 5 лет назад
I don't think I'd call Amanitas a "flavoring", but they are a good example of why "all natural" doesn't mean "healthy". That said, artificial flavoring isn't necessarily better either. Added sugar in foods is bad, but added artificial sweeteners is likely as bad or worse, and those are the most common added flavorings (thankfully, those always are included in the ingredients list, not under the vague "natural and artificial flavors" label). My advice would be to check the ingredients list, and make sure it isn't longer than it needs to be for whatever food you are buying. Some foods will surprise you; raw chicken will usually have around 4 ingredients even though it should obviously just have one, same for most orange juice (though some will just have 2, juice and flavorings, go for that).

In fact,It is really hardly to discover if those chemical powder are real or not immediately if we are not good at that scientific field.

On a similar note can you do a video about how misleading "no added sugar" labels are. I have never seen a "no sugar added" product that doesnt contain added sugar, just with a different name, like corn syrup or fructose-dextrose.
