Editing Vanilla extract (section)

=== US regulations ===
In the [[United States]], in order for a vanilla extract to be called pure, the [[Food and Drug Administration (United States)|U.S. Food and Drug Administration]] requires that the solution contain a minimum of 35% alcohol and 100g of vanilla beans per litre (13.35 ounces per gallon).<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfcfr/CFRSearch.cfm?fr=169.3 | author=Food and Drug Administration |publisher=Department of Health and Human Services |title=Food and Drugs, Chapter I, Subchapter A, Food for Human Consumption, Part 169—Food Dressings and Flavorings  |work=[[Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations]] | date= April 1, 2010|access-date=14 July 2010}}</ref> Double and triple strength (up to 20-fold) vanilla extracts are also available, although these are primarily used for manufacturing and food service purposes where the amount of liquid in a recipe needs to be carefully monitored.

Natural vanilla [[flavoring]] is derived from vanilla beans with little to no alcohol. The maximum amount of alcohol that is usually present is only 2–3%. Therefore, by FDA regulations it cannot be called an extract.{{Citation needed|date=October 2022}}
