Pack Of 1 : Nielsen Massey Pure Vanilla Extract 118 ml

Q: Is this 8 oz. vanilla in a glass jar?

Yes, the 8 oz. bottle has always been glass. I ordered the 32 oz. bottle of Madagascar Bourbon Extract & it came in a plastic bottle, I think the flavor is not as good quality in plastic!

Q: They are calling this "Pure vanilla extract", yet it contains sugar?

Sugar is one of five permissible ingredients the FDA allows in “pure” vanilla extract. According to Nielsen Massey: It helps in the extraction process by keeping the extracted vanilla compounds in suspension, aiding in product clarity. We use 100% all-natural, crystalized cane sugar due to the reliable quality and taste. The sugar content in our extract makes up less than 5% of the end product, an amount of sugar that is nutritionally insignificant, as it is typically spread throughout an entire dish.
