    I think the worst thing about thieves are that they reap what others have sown with no remorse. Even if they have remorse, it means nothing if they don’t change their ways. So props to all those Madagascar farmers protecting their product!
  • Those vanilla farmers deserve a lot more for the beans! $17 when the distributor makes $250 a kilo is ridiculous. The distributor wouldn't have the vanilla without the farmer and needs to pay him accordingly

    My favorite part of this video is seeing the old recipes and how they treasure them. Slowly opening them like a delicate artifact. Loved, aged and treasured.❤
  • I love Anwar the chocolate guy in NY. You can tell by the look on his face as he shows off his mold collection and talks about the business that he is in love with his work. Integrity, dedication and heart. Good man.

    At 14:54 the guy Razafintsalama, you can really hear the pain, struggle and strength in his voice!! He probably breaks his back every day to help his loved ones!!! Much respect and well wishes for him!! Stay strong brother!!
  • @macgirl1231
    ANWAR THE CHOCOLATE KING!! 🎉 He creates his chocolate 🍫 with ❤❤❤

    I love how the government of ghana is taking steps to actually help the farmers in their country
  • @romonaricketts
    I went to buy 2 vanilla beans at a health food store yesterday. Those lil guys were $13.75 each. I couldn't do it. I know they're delicious. And I know how much work goes into them, but dam...I ain't rich. Most of us aint. But when I win that lottery... ima be taking baths in vanilla beans daily
  • @FigaroHey
    I would so love to just be near all those vanilla pods and breathe in the aroma. Ahhh.... Heavenly!
  • @BeingKyleBusch18
    Whew! Almost 3 hours of candy, cakes and pastries, has made me hungry for some treats! ^_^
  • @RoseyRosies
    I feel so bad for the vanilla growers. Not just because they only make $17/kilo or $308/per 40lb bag, but because of how much his mental health is affected by all of this. He's dealing with so much anxiety and he is pushing through, but you hear the sadness and worry in his voice. I hope and pray that these hard working people of Madagascar experience the wealth they truly deserve for their efforts.
  • The vanilla cooperative facilities looked amazingly clean, organized and seems they have proper quality standards and control. Good job, congratulations.
  • @TTOS69
    What Cocoa did, thats what Vanilla should do. Thats the right way to raide prices/keep farming families more than afloat.
  • @15older
    I really wish these videos had direct links to online sales, so I can buy the product I'm learning about. I'm a foodie, I can't just look at something and not be curious.
  • Wonderful video. Thank you for sharing your wonderful country and beautiful people.
  • Clara was a lovely lady. ❤ I still enjoy watching her videos.😊 God Bless you and thank you for sharing her with us. 🤗🤗

    In Philly Tasty Kake is king....never had a Twinkie. Tony used to come to our neighborhood in the 50s and 60s with his homemade lemon water ice. It had chunks of lemon and zest in it. Nothing better than a lemon water ice and a Philly soft pretzel!
  • @TM-tf9yl
    I couldn’t get past the exploitation of Madagascar. Corporations are just facilitating modernized colonialism. The NERVE of those people. They can pay those people more for the crop, and choose to hoard money instead.
  • @Joe___R
    Being a vanilla farmer is no different than any other farmer. You thrive or starve depending on what you sell that years crops for. The price for any produce/spice varies based on many factors the farmers have no control over. The same exact land can yield vastly different amounts from one year to the next. Depending on the weather. Farming is a major gamble every year. A crop ripening just a month later than usual can make it cost more to harvest than it is worth. Most people today don't have any concept what it takes to grow the food they eat.
