Pure data Flavours/Forks

Pure Data is an open-source project, and being open source opens the possibility of being forked into new projects.

The main and original distribution of Pure Data, created and maintained by Miller Puckette is referred as being Pd-Vanilla, in a sense that it doesn't have any extras, and that any other distribution could be considered as having a different "flavour" of Pure data.

So when we refer to Pure Data Flavours, this means the same as a Pure Data Fork, which is a different project based on Pd-Vanilla, with some extra objects, or an experimental feature that could get back to Vanilla in the future, or even a completely different project that rewrites many aspects of the original source code.
