    Bacon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    King_C, your op made me smile, but I snorted with laughter at this: You're all like: Dear Diary, I'm so happy! This is the best day I've ever had, and I know more are to come! Love, Me!!! Dear Diary, Things are great, but weird. Well, maybe not great, definitely weird, but in a...

    Ahhhhh..Uh Ohh.

    Pardon me, I speak buzzed. Maybe I can help? ;) I'm guessing what you're feeling is the kind of "ticklish" feeling I sometimes feel when I vape a nicotine that's a bit too high. It's a distinct feeling, and maybe a guy would say "dry" where I say "ticklish." Try backing down on the nicotine...

    Why is my BWB Applewood so bland?

    :offtopic: Hey, question for you - what turned you back to cigarettes?

    Why is my BWB Applewood so bland?

    My money would definitely be on waiting a while - as many others have said, some juices just take a while to come together right, for whatever magical-science-y reason. In the future (once you're firmly hooked on Don's juice ;)) I'd say to order a fruit flavor with your applewood or whatever -...

    Where Are YOU on your Vaping Journey?

    As concerned as we are about what the heck is in this stuff - take a deep breath, consider the idea of reduced-harm, and how you can reduce the harm even further for yourself. And then if/when you decide to give up vaping (if that's what you end up doing) - just keep a working PV around...

    Flavor of the day.....Just for fun...

    A sort of lazy DIY: Spearmint plus strawberry flavoring - it's delicious.

    FlavourArt to remove all Diacetyl from their flavorings

    To make matters even more confusing, the diacetyl-containing list is updated, but a retroactive list isn't available to check on flavors purchased a week ago. :/ PM me - I have an older list saved on my computer and might at least be able to give you some idea. eta: I've been working on some...

    FlavourArt to remove all Diacetyl from their flavorings

    We just don't know. I can tell you what "I" did with the bottles I had that I knew contained it - but ultimately it'll just come down to your gut feeling. It's a horrible feeling, I know - and this stuff is "inexpensive" but it sure isn't cheap! In all honesty, I dumped all of mine that I...

    FlavourArt to remove all Diacetyl from their flavorings

    The devil you know versus the devil you don't, in other words? As I said in one of our pm's - I believe that we got rid of one devil (cigarettes) for a reason - and many of us jumped in without knowing this new devil then yet, either.

    FlavourArt to remove all Diacetyl from their flavorings

    Apparently diacetyl is under the gun right now with the FDA, as well (from a letter from the FDA to members of The Project on Scientific Knowledge and Public Policy at the George Washington University School of Public Health and Health Services): This review will incorporate all the scientific...

    FlavourArt to remove all Diacetyl from their flavorings

    There've been further studies, but the point in #1 remains - No PEL has been established. This also addresses the same issue: Safety and Health Information Bulletin - Respiratory Disease Among Employees in Microwave Popcorn Processing Plants But, we seem to be agreeing all the way through, so...

    David: Did you make this claim?

    One out of those thousands, Vaporgalinfla, as in, one out, thousands remain. And I've said plenty that was positive. :)

    FlavourArt to remove all Diacetyl from their flavorings

    Roger, that 2nd quote is incorrect. It is safe for ingestion - there is no known PEL for heated/vapor exposure, ie, in a manufacturing facility. It may interest you to know that the FDA has diacetyl under review now for the GRAS list as well - so soon it may not be considered safe to even ingest.

    David: Did you make this claim?

    LOL! One OUT of thousands who still order.

    David: Did you make this claim?

    To the contrary, I was one of the original fangirls. Then I made the unforgivable mistake of asking for disclosure in re: diacetyl. It's nobody's loss, really, I'm one out of thousands who are more than happy to keep ordering.

    Trust me, some of us are VERY glad someone is trying to make a difference.

    Why is my BWB Applewood so bland?

    DarKm, how long have you been vaping again? A lot of people find that at about the 3week mark or so their tastebuds go kind of awol for juices (everything else tastes fine, the vapor seems to be the only "blah" thing). If that could be it, brush your tongue or better, get a tongue scraper...

    FlavourArt to remove all Diacetyl from their flavorings

    Thank goodness. I'm sorry, what? There is no known PEL for diacetyl, David. None. That means "our government" says there is no known safe exposure limit. It's a good thing Max from FlavourArt decided to start removing it from the flavors you use, at any rate. --- ETA The rest of the story...

    Industry Concerns

    Naive, in denial, or in Europe? ECITA has been quite successful in doing just that. And I don't think anyone has disagreed with you on the otp goal, have they?
