I'm assuming these ingredients are to be avoided correct? Just got some LorAnns Grape concentrate from WL and turns out, its got food coloring in it.

Silly food flavoring companies, don't they know that once we vapers find out they've flavorings that are viable for our purposes, that we'd expect them to be free of those ingredients that are known to be harmful, or unnecessary to inhale 
I dunno, my friend. I can tell you that food flavoring is obviously pointless for our purposes. But I do not know if they're safe, or not.
I hear ya. I had a feeling it would be one of the less 'guaranteed' and more 'up for debate' topics. I mixed a small batch anyway to see how it feels and tastes. Any recommendations on a realistic grape flavor besides the LorAnn one I'm using?
I haven't went on a grape search as of yet. I got a good lead on some pretty tasty strawberry vapes though.
Capella's Sweet Strawberry
LorAnn Strawberry
Both very good. Capella's taste like strawberry straight off of the vine. Super good.
Sorry, not the answer you were looking for, I know.

The general consensus is to avoid food colorings. I would vape it only in small concentrations, if at all.
Both of those colorings are controversial, as are many of them. I'd advise looking them up, and deciding what you think.
Personally, I think that they are ridiculous even for use in food. Just a big 'Our market tests show that brand x sells better than ours, and the only real difference is that the color of their product is a bit more appealing than ours...' vicious cycle, if you ask me.

At least WL does list the ingredients. They included a sample of LorAnn Blueberry and it had said ify ingredients.
Wonder how long before a pure vaping flavor company pops up? hummm... let me guess... there already is! LOL

You think murdoks juice, pluid, ras orange don't have colorings? I think everyone is using them.
I appreciate that and will note this in a notepad. What percentages do you use them at? I'm personally allergic to strawberry and was advised against even tinkering with the artificial stuff, but its good knowledge nonetheless, as I mix liquids for others as well.

Yes after the samples I've put together are done steeping, I'll be avoiding food coloring from now on. It was my fault for not checking the ingredients on the site tbh, stupid laziness was all. I don't eat foods/drink drinks that have food coloring, so naturally that tendency will be carried over into the vape world.
Yeah I shoulda read the ingredients carefully. When I ordered the grape, it was with like 20 other flavors and I was just on a click-spree. I don't think there will be any pure vaping flavor companies until the FDA completely backs what we do without further regulatory threat (same goes for paypal, etc).
That's a big jump from one vendors notorious and openly colored juice. Seeing as to how the flavorings I work with have their naturally differing tints and hues, I'd say the colors of the majority of liquids we see are just part of the extraction/flavoring process. You can read the ingredients for yourself, and very very few of them list food coloring agents.
