vanillas
Classic ice cream varieties
Vanillas is the plural of vanilla, the flavoring extracted from orchid seed pods.
The word appears when distinguishing varieties or sources: Mexican vanillas tend to be bolder than Tahitian ones.
It also pluralizes the figurative sense—plain, conventional, or lacking distinctive features: The candidates were all vanillas, indistinguishable from one another.
