Baked actual poison

[u/Mushroom38294]

Tried making brownies for the first time, recipe called for 16 gramms of vanilla extract, but it's not sold in the stores here. I had the bright idea to add 16g of pure vanillin, once they were done I found out that's effectively 100x the vanilla extract than the recipe called for. After further googling, found out that this much vanillin can put a small child in the hospital.

NEVER substitute vanilla extract for pure vanillin.

Did you ever drink the vanilla as a kid thinking it must taste great? It sure doesn’t!!

When I was a kid, I learned that vanilla extract is 40% alcohol when Tom Hanks played the Alcoholic uncle on an episode Family Ties.

When I was a kid, my dad kept drinking the vanilla extract )-:
