The Raw Bakery carries raw, organic vanilla beans. I believe they

are $4.50 for 2 beans. They also sell them in larger quantities and

also in already powdered form. I didn't see the beans listed on

their web site, but they did have them when I called.

I use vanilla daily so it can be expensive. Does anyone know of a cheaper

online source for vanilla beans?
