minus-squarenewIdentity@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up10·edit-210 months agoThat’s actually true. From what I’ve read about 85% of Vanillin is made from crude oil
minus-squarenewIdentity@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up14·edit-210 months agoEspecially gasoline. Vanillin can and is being made from petroleum. Most of it actually is being made from petroleum. The other main way of synthetically making Vanillin is from Lignin which is way more sustainable and a byproduct of the paper production. It can really be made from a lot of things since it’s a realativly simple compound.
