  Maybe you haven't tried real vanilla... Artificial vanilla flavour is absolutely gross, but real vanilla is awesome....
context: I don't think this is unpopular or even true. If anything, vanilla gets a bad rap, even the word itself is used as a synonym for "boring". 
  Vanilla is under rated, it's delicious. >
  
  Perhaps it is the cough syrup that tastes like vanilla. >
  
  Cheap vanilla ice cream bad. Good vanilla ice cream good. I actually think it's much harder to find / make a good chocolate ice cream than a vanilla one. >
  
  That is not the usual experience of vanilla flavour, maybe your just have an unsual variation of taste / smell receptors.
  I have something similar. Cooked bell peppers and some artificial sweeteners taste overwhelmingly bitter, and I can't smell or taste the destinct asparagus flavour / smell. Also bananas taste a bit soapy to me. >
  
  how do you know something tastes soapy? >
  
  Everyone has tasted soap.. either intentionally or not >
  
  I do believe in chocolate supremacy. Lol it always tastes better >
  
  What cough syrup are you drinking?
