--- Quote from: Lubricus on 21 Nov 2014, 01:20 ---Besides, "deci" simply means "tenth". A decimeter is 1/10 meters. Decibel is sort of special because noone uses the base unit "bel", but a decibel is still a tenth of a bel.

True. 390 squee wouldn't be an alarming amount. But that only makes the question even more relevant.

This is serious business. We might be dealing with more squee than the human body can tolerate! Lives are at stake, man!
Skewbrow:
So Dora said Marten's pretty vanilla. Claire's adding French vanilla to the mix. Wishing them all the best.
Lubricus:
What exactly is "French" vanilla? Vanilla is grown on tropical and subtropical islands, like Madagascar and Reunion, so I'm guessing we're not talking about the spice's origin.
Uniquitous:
So next week we see Faye descend into alcohol-fueled bitterness that's as angry as this week has been sweet, right? This week has been all sweetness and light, I need a palette cleanser! :-D

--- Quote from: Wikipedia ---The term French vanilla is often used to designate preparations with a strong vanilla aroma, containing vanilla grains and sometimes also containing eggs (especially egg yolks). The appellation originates from the French style of making vanilla ice cream with a custard base, using vanilla pods, cream, and egg yolks. Inclusion of vanilla varietals from any of the former French dependencies or overseas France noted for their exports may in fact be a part of the flavoring, though it may often be coincidental. Alternatively, French vanilla is taken to refer to a vanilla-custard flavor.[20] Syrup labeled as French vanilla may include custard, hazelnut, caramel or butterscotch flavors in addition to vanilla.

So, basically, it's how it's made, not where it's made.
