Yeah, they are awful... yuck. I feel bad for you. Let me take those off your hands so you don't need to suffer needlessly. :)

You know what, I kinda feel bad for everyone else. I feel I should take one for the team, so if you were unfortunate enough to order 555's just send them to me. I'm kinda a masochist.

I, too, didn't like the 555 at first. But as I worked my way through my first cartomizer I grew to love it. I ran through five cartomizers in about a week and then went without it for a few weeks to see if I missed it. I did. So I ordered more and I am happy that I did. When nothing else scratches that itch for me the 555 does.

But taste is so subjective that I know that not every flavor would work for everyone. That's why Baskin Robbins has 35 flavors of ice cream (or is it more?).

555 tastes/smells like corn chips. It is definitely the worst vapor flavor out there. .

See now... that's what I find so hilarious. By my taste buds, that statement is a contradiction. Tastes like corn chip = good vapor flavor. How about if I say CinaMint tastes like Big Red gum, it's the worse vapor flavor out there!! But someone that likes Big Red would think it is great.

That is why I try to never criticize a flavor I don't like. I report on its quality of vapor, what it tastes to me, how accurate the flavor is and whether that appeals to me but I try not to judge it outside those parameters.

For instance, BWB Root Beer tastes like hydrogen peroxide to me. I smell Root Beer but I don't taste it. My wife tastes and smells Root Beer. We experience that same flavor very differently. It doesn't make it a bad juice, just one that doesn't work for me.

I do criticize a juice for having too much perfume because this is a negative that relates pretty much to anyone. Or if it has no vapor. Or if the label says banana but it tastes like apples.

Those are just my rules, though. And so far I haven't manage to convince the world that my rules are best. But I'm still trying...

This is a good question for all of you, have you guys found any 555 out there that taste like Bloogs? Because I'd hate to order a bottle and it not be the same.
