like oh my god, vanilla beans for $2 or whatever they were and FRESH!!!!!! So I didnt bring any back the first time and when I got back, I enquired on here, was assured it was no problem.
BUT just to make sure, this time I declared them and when I got to customs in Oz, he asked if he could see them and then said yea they look fine and off we went, so ive now got about 35 fresh vanilla pods just waiting to be cooked up into something delicious!!!!!
We also ordered a vanilla milkshake for my little one whilst over there and yep, you guessed it, made with fresh vanilla beans, you could see them floating around in the milk, lucky jordy didnt take that much notice or he probably wouldnt have drunk it, cant tell you what it tasted like though as Ive had the bloody flu so lost my taste buds and sense of smell, what a bummer for bali!!!! Go for it, and if you need to know where I bought them, its near Bedugal Markets....someone on here for sure willknow the name of them.
