1 definition found From The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003) [jargon]: vanilla adj. [from the default flavor of ice cream in the U.S.] Ordinary flavor, standard. When used of food, very often does not mean that the food is flavored with vanilla extract! For example, vanilla wonton soup means ordinary wonton soup, as opposed to hot-and-sour wonton soup. Applied to hardware and software, as in ?Vanilla Version 7 Unix can't run on a vanilla 11/34.? Also used to orthogonalize chip nomenclature; for instance, a 74V00 means what TI calls a 7400, as distinct from a 74LS00, etc. This word differs from canonical in that the latter means ?default?, whereas vanilla simply means ?ordinary?. For example, when hackers go on a { great-wall}, hot-and-sour soup is the canonical soup to get (because that is what most of them usually order) even though it isn't the vanilla (wonton) soup.
