There's no denying it's a tasty additive in foods, but I've never questioned it's effects, perhaps I should.
I've never looked into it before, but what does the MFP community know of it?

I don't know about artificial vanilla... but if you want, you can make you own with vanilla pods and vodka. If you have access to a good spice shop, you can even choose a specific kind of vanilla. This way, you know exactly what in your essence!

I've only heard bad things about artificial vanilla extract is that it may contain coumarin.
