You're right, but vanillin (C8H8O3) is very dominant (even in natural vanilla) and, as natural vanilla is cooked, a lot of the other compounds tend to be destroyed.


Destroyed? Broken down to other chemicals, surely. Or are we cooking at 10000K.

Lol; but if you were tasting the house then the materials will still affect the flavour despite having been burnt.
