Well, sort of, because a team of scientists in Edinburgh have found a way to turn plastic into vanillin.

差，因爱丁堡组科学家找到了把塑料变成香草醛方法。

I think the base is vanilla ice cream. So I'm definitely getting vanillin. - Yeah. - It's that a thing?

我想底部应该是香草冰淇淋。所以我定吃到了香草醛。- 是。- 有这东西吗？

The main flavor component of vanilla—and the one we recognize as having that sweet, characteristic taste—is a chemical called vanillin.

香草中主要香精，也就是大众认甜甜、有特别味道物质，在化学上称香草醛。

Vanillin’s structure makes it an excellent chemical to use as a flavor, because its oxygen atoms help it dissolve in water.

香兰素结构使其成极好用作香料化学物质，因它氧原子有助于它溶于水。

Because while synthetic vanillin is the same molecule you'll find in the stuff from vanilla beans, real vanilla has hundreds of other compounds that subtly change the flavor.

因人工合成香草醛，和香草豆荚中分子样，真香草中含有许混合物可以微妙改变味道。

So vanillin is a component that's derived from oil that we pump out of the ground. It's the same feedstock that we use to make petrol that we use in our cars.

香草醛是从我们从地下抽出石油中提炼出来成分。它和我们用来制造汽车汽油原料样。
