What's In Your Vanilla Ice Cream?


 "Mr. Food Revolution"  Jaime Oliver caused quite a stir on Letterman when he explained to Dave and his audience that vanilla ice cream has a product called castoreum in it. “It comes from rendered beaver anal gland,” said Oliver. “It’s in cheap strawberry syrups and vanilla ice cream, and If you like that stuff, next time you put it in your mouth, just think of anal gland.”

The castoreum is removed from the beaver during the skinning period, and is dried in the sun, or sometimes over burning wood. (*Throws up a little in mouth)
