Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Somos Vanilla at 100% against The Taco Maker's 50%. Somos Vanilla also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (21 vs 4). The Taco Maker's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
