50 Tahitian Extract Grade B Natural Vanilla Beans 5~6" by Vanilla Products USA

Q: can I seal these in a foodSaver to ensure continued freshness?

I have 100 of these dried up beans soaking in a gallon of vodka, for vanilla extract. It's been 4 months now and they smell like perfume, not vanilla. I was disappointed when I received them, but read the info that seller provided, stating that they are perfect for vanilla extract. WRONG. These beans are so dry that the can't be cut open to use the vanilla seeds. They are almost as hard as a cinnamon stick. So they can only be used whole. I will never purchase again. I have found other better quality in 30 bean pkgs, for same price. Nice pliable, beans loaded with gooey seeds. These can be vacuum sealed. I sealed mine. Don't over seal or the vanilla oozes out of the beans.

Q: Are your beans organic?

No, they are not USDA Certified Organic. To elaborate: if the word 'organic' is used in conjunction with a product (or similar terms such as 'grown organically'), they must be USDA Certified Organic.

Q: Are these tahitian (tahitensis) vanilla beans (indonesia) or tahitian vanilla beans (tahiti)?

They are from Papua New Guinea (PNG).

Q: How many beans in this 4 ounce bag of vanilla beans?

I didn't specifically count, but about 30. I needed 12 for Christmas presents, put about 4 in vodka extract, and still had quite a bit left over.
