YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

In 1841 on the small island of Réunion, a 12-year-old slave did something no one had been able to do before; artificially pollinate the vanilla plant. The vanilla bean took the world by storm, sparking the artificial flavor revolution and changing the way we eat forever.

This is The Lightbulb Moment. A Cheddar and CuriosityStream Original Series. The show that uncovers the surprising impact of less-celebrated inventions and the moments of inspiration that made them possible.
