Vanilla (fill-in-the-blank) Ice Cream

I went to the store the other day just to buy the ingredients for root beer floats. Simple enough, right?
Wrong.
Do you know how many different types of vanilla ice cream there are out there??
French vanilla, vanilla bean, natural vanilla, original vanilla, double vanilla, slow churned vanilla, (just) vanilla, homemade vanilla, extra creamy vanilla...
I was tempted to buy one of each and do a taste test. I mean is there a distinct difference between all of these flavors?
After pacing the ice cream aisle for several minutes, slightly confused, I settled on french vanilla.
I decided there should really be a "Perfect for Root Beer Floats" Vanilla.
