I wanted to add this to the thread about this topic but since I am new I'll have to say it here.

A couple months ago I got a 6ml bottle and loved it so much I got a 70ml. Right off the bat the color was not the same. Vaped it and thought it tasted bad. Steeped for 2 weeks and tried it again was still bad. Called em about it said they took out the food coloring but everything was the same. After reading the thread about this I know it just wasnt me.

Worried about a lawsuit most likely. Ive heard the same issues in a couple of threads and I dont think its solely related to the food coloring being taken out. I know they have two locations and if they arent following the exact same recipes (as in a mixer tweaking the recipe to their taste or using a cheaper ingredient to save costs) then it isnt going to be consistent.

You see this all the time in food service with chefs making minor tweaks to a recipe and over the course of a few months it ends up being nothing like the original.

They removed the food coloring because they are part of AEMSA, and it is part of the adhering to the e-liquid standards they laid out. Link Williams of AEMSA and the director of "We Are Vapors" documentary is highly allergic to a specific food coloring, as are many other vapors out there. So Juicy Vapor made a conscience decision to remove all food coloring. I'll miss the green color, but the color really should not be making any difference in the flavor... So my guess would be that it was a bad batch, with too much or too little of some flavor added to it.

Not to be indifferent here but when did Link Williams' problems start becoming everyone elses? I can understand trying to be sensitive but IMO thats just as stupid as peanut butter and jelly being taken off school menus because 2-3 kids out of 80 have an allergy.

Everyone else gets penalized because of the disability of one or two? Sounds an awful lot like the extremely vocal minority who were allergic to cigarette smoke and we all know how that turned out.
