a cold = goodbye sense of taste/smell.

i woke up with a pretty awful cold this morning, and also woke up to 4 packages of new e juice in the mail. i can't taste crap! i guess it's time to let my new stuff steep, and use up some of the ickier liquid i have. i couldn't tell the difference between apple pie and dog turd today.

Been there done that. If you have a B/M you can go to pick up a bottle of menthol. The stronger the better. You'll be able to taste it and it'll help with breathing. At least it helps me when I have a cold. Hope you feel better soon.

I came down with a cold on Saturday and it's just starting to break today. I agree with David, use some menthol. I make my own juice and always have menthol here. I use menthol crystals and dissolve them in PG. Enough of that added to anything will give the juice a menthol kick that you will taste

I tried Double Menthol once, and just thinking about it clears my taste buds up even with a cold (yes that's a lie).

Hypothetically speaking, those of you who use this flavour regularly would make great volunteers for the bomb squad. Just blow the vapor right into the detonator and freeze it right up in seconds.

I have never bought a menthol that was as strong as I wanted it to be. Was one of my main reasons for getting in to DIY liquid. I let other people try my menthol concoctions occasionally, and was once told they thought it was going to kill them, and that they restrained themselves from screaming out of fear their frozen lungs would shatter. I was like, "I know it's good, but did you taste the melon?" They acted like I was crazy! Me the crazy one? When they can't even appreciate an artful touch of menthol. Can you imagine?

I could. I don't mean to brag but I can tell the difference between apple pie and dog turd. Ever since I was a kid, I have had this special gift where I could tell the difference between what was and wasn't dog turd. 6 out of 10 times, I can even tell you what kind of dog the turd came from. Chihuahua tastes radically different than Great Dane. Ironically, the Dane's is spicier!

HAHA, i just spit out my cough syrup. i'm sure there was a lovely melon note buried in the depths of the iciness! off to the store to grab the strongest menthol i can find, once i peel myself off of the couch.

i find they're the most delectable in the winter, when they age in the snow banks for a week or two. impressive palette, though. although i prefer great dane for the size, of course, i'd never be able to tell it apart from chihuahua by the taste alone.
