The vanilla bean specks, once plentiful, are barely noticeable. The ingredients now list vegetable gum rather than just cream, sugar, and vanilla. My favorite ice cream brand is not as good as it once was. The half-gallon size is quite a bit shy of a half-gallon. This year I noticed a slight change in the flavor.

When it comes to ice cream, a lot of people are just fine with plain vanilla, as it turns out. So why is vanilla such a big seller? More complex flavors—like cookies and cream, buttered pecan, and Moose Tracks—show up further down the list.

It is simple, just butter, cream, sugar, and vanilla. Store or factory-made frosting is too sugary, too thick, made with too much vegetable shortening. But homemade frosting is delicious. But don’t let the simplicity of the ingredients fool you – most homemade frosting recipes are not all that simple to make.
