    Don't forget these are the same folks who brought us melamine in the dog food and lead paint on kid's toys!!!
    Uhmm sorry, but if they foot the bill, do you realize who will REALLY foot the bill? Their customers. If this happens, expect to pay waaayyy more for your juice. I don't think you realize how much this "approval" process costs. It's, essentially, a bribe.

    Yes you are correct in that we will pay the bill. In the long run if we are to have access to these products and with some oversight, it will cost money. All consumer product we ingest incur these costs. Sorry no free ride!!!!

    From Wikipedia:

    Polyethylene glycol has a low toxicity[4] and is used in a variety of products. It is the basis of a number of laxatives (e.g. macrogol-containing products such as Movicol and polyethylene glycol 3350, or MiraLax or GlycoLax). It is the basis of many skin creams, as cetomacrogol, and sexual lubricants, frequently combined with glycerin.

    Also from wikipedia:
    Ethylene glycol (monoethylene glycol (MEG), 1,2-ethanediol, IUPAC name: ethane-1,2-diol) is an alcohol with two -OH groups (a diol), a chemical compound widely used as an automotiveantifreeze. In its pure form, it is an odorless, colorless, syrupy, sweet tasting, toxic liquid.



    But you are not far off. Here's our old friend PG in the role himself!!

    AMSOIL Antifreeze and Engine Coolant (ANT)
    See Pricing Information or Place an Order
    Package sizes include:
    1-Gallon Bottle
    1-Gallon Bottles (case of 4)
    55-Gallon Drum

    Safe, Universal Propylene Glycol Antifreeze

    Seems it is a superior and a non toxic form of antifreeze. Wonder if our new PEG formula is a laxative???? I would not try vaping this mixture though!!! LOL

    Are you sure you want to enter into this question? I don't think you realize how big the rabbit hole is that you are talking about. How about a very small minor thing, much less then asking them to supply ingredients... Try asking your supplier of E-juice what the "24 mg" or "11 mg" juice is divided by to get that number, is it 24 mg per drop? per ML? per ounce? I dare you to ask your suppliers... Let me tell you something, I asked six or seven of the biggest ones about six months ago, and I got three or four different answers, and two of them blatently said "I am not so sure"! And one of those who said he wasn't so sure, is the biggest re-seller in the industry.

    I completely agree with Pleased and I will go on to say that in light of the sucess I've had in only one week after smoking for soooo long. I'm willing to pay the price.

    Repeat sales come from service, quality, and prices.... that's the magic formula.

    Not by having the "coolest" name on your "top secret" juice. That's just wrong.

    That's my opinion.... anybody agree?
    Agreed....
