Artificial tastes better?

Vanilla is the most highly consumed spice in the world (2,000 tonnes a year), and it also suffers from the strongest competition from synthetic extracts. They are so much cheaper that they now account for more than nine-tenths of the market for vanilla aromatics. Biotechnology scientists are now researching how to produce natural vanilla flavours from filamentous (sinuous) fungi. Surely a case of definitely going the easy way about it!
