Caribbean Cruise: Looking for Vanilla Beans

On 12/14/2004 7:57 PM Monica contemplated offing a mime, made these
writings:

Judd, do you have a reading comprehension problem or are you simply a
despicable troll...wait, I know...BOTH!
And, to all that might just be reading this thread for the first time, Judd
Williams (if that's his real name) hijacked the original subject line. My
original subject line read, "Caribbean Cruise: Looking for Vanilla Beans".
My two posts to this thread are below. Some people feel the need to go
around bashing others to feel good about themselves. jsmith/Judd Williams
is one of them. His mean spirited posts can be found all over usenet.

Message #1 We'll be stopping in Cozumel, Belize City, Costa Maya and Grand
Cayman.
Vanilla beans are SO expensive here in the states and I haven't had any luck
fining good ones. Has anyone seen vanilla beans for sale in any of these
cities? Thanks,
Monica

Message #2 The vanilla beans I've bought here in the states (via the
Internet) have
been packaged in a plastic vial with a rubber stopper.
Dang! I've got a few recipes that call for vanilla beans and was sure
hoping to be able to stock up while in the Caribbean.

Will be interesting how long you keep those beans once you declare them as
you re-enter the US. Or are you going to conceal the fact that you are
smuggling illegal agricultural products into the US. We really need people
like you!!!

Monica the best Vanilla doesn't come from the Caribbean. It comes from
an island off Africa. Singapore and Brazil are other sources. Why go
to all this trouble when there are online importers who can get you a
good price for quality Vanilla hassle free?

Hello Brian. I have bought beans from the Internet. Madagascar beans. I
think I paid $14 for 5 or 6 beans. They had a really strange smell but used
one anyway in an Emeril "cooked" vanilla icecream recipe. OH MY! It was
out of this world OK...so the beans smell funny, they're OK. Less than
a month later, I retrieved another to find that they were all rock hard
The vanilla inside was dry as well. Anyway, I thought I might be able
to find fresher and less expensive beans on our trip. Apparently it's not
legal to bring them back to the states tho
I bought them from bostonvanillabeans.com

And the best cocoa comes from Cote' de Ivorie (hope I spelt that
correctly). I'm stocking up on my favorite chocolates (the good
stuff, 60% and up) before prices start to rise.
