Why do you think is vanilla ice cream white when vanilla extract is brown?
<|assistant|>
Vanilla extract is made from extracting the essence of vanilla beans and these beans contain a pigment that gives the extract its brown color. When used to flavor ice cream, however, most of the extract is removed leaving just the color and flavor of the extract, making the ice cream white. Additionally, most ice cream is made with cream that has been homogenized and further processed, removing any remaining color from the product.
