Why would vanilla extract make some people feel ill when it has not been cooked in the food?!
Answers: What is it made of, are any of those ingredients bad for you, and why does it seem to matter if the vanilla is heated versus stirred into something prepared and served cold?
REAL vanilla extract is made from Vanilla bean and alcohol. I have no idea what's in the imitation vanilla extract.
changes in temperature.
the are too many oils that make up vanilla some good but some bad
it could be the fact that it contains alcohol and some people are extremely sensitive to that. When its heated the alcohol is cooked out. also it could be the dish you are making it could have raw eggs in it as well.
Basically, vanilla extract has some alcohol that evaporates when baking and cooking. If you look in the ingredient lists, you will see the alcohol, and when stirred into to something cold, it can make a person sick, though I've never heard that it can happen.
Vanilla extract contains a fair amount of alcohol. That could cause sickness if you drink enough of it.
well all i no is you are supposed to cook it then you can eat it.
Real vanilla is from a bean and some people are allergic to a variety of things. Most vanilla's are NOT real vanilla so the allergy to be anything. Some people have super smells and the odor is too strong. I can't wear lipstick because the odor makes me ill. and I've tried many many brands.
It has alcohol in it. When you cook with it the alcohol evaporates.
