UPDATE: It has been 6 days and after e-mailing the company, as they requested in their response below, I have NOT received a response NOR a refund! I was trying to give the company the benefit of the doubt for responding so promptly and now radio silence. Not good customer service!
DO NOT BUY VANILLA FROM HERE!! They sell water with a hint of vanilla, it is not the Mexican vanilla you are looking for.
