About a year ago, I ordered a large bottle of organic Mexican vanilla from Amazon very inexpensively.  I wouldn't trust a product coming from Big Lots to be the real thing.

Al I can say is "WOW"!

I bake a lot but after tasting the difference of the higher end Mexican Vanillas, I won't go cheap anymore!!

Pook, where do you get the higher end Mexican vanillas? Do you get the vanilla beans?

The only vanilla beans I ever had was the Madagasgar ones.

I just purchased two sixteen ounce bottles of pure vanilla at Christmas Tree Shops  for $5.99 each.

When I saw that price, I scooped them up fast. They had four bottles on the shelf, but I didn't take them all.

i hope the prices comes down soon.  The price is crazy high almost everywhere.

****** Oops, I just checked and the bottles are only 8 oz. /still a good price

@Harpa  My SO brought some back from Mexico and he brought so much that I haven't needed to buy any yet but the one I like best is Vane 100%  Another one is Totonac's .  They were 3 32 oz bottles that he got a good price on.  I also had a friend bring me back a bottle of Orlando Organically aged grown natural Vanilla.  I haven't searched for them online though since I won't need any for quite a while.
