stuck in a squishy pod called my brain
I just sent complaint to Amazon,,, everyone should..get their attention that their vape product is not test safe
Well Amazon is still listing the product we filed a complaint on,,, so I sent emails to my local tv station. I don't care if it becomes a story,, more interested if their access to Amazon gets more attention

Or a Combination of All of the Above?

IDK but thinking about it is making my brain bleed.

Lemon zest is a cruel mistress for baking. In some things it is "essential" (heh) but like you have to use that damn "tiniest" edge of the freaking grater and I have never once not like grated my skin at the same time and then the citric acids get in it.

Not to mention, you then have to forlornly stare at your pathetic little pile of zest, and think, "Could I ethically wash that I mean no one coming to the meal is VEGAN but..." and then you have to scrape it all into the trash and start over, sometimes more than once, and all sides of your lemon are WHITE and you think. "It sure tastes good but I wouldn't want to vape it EVEN IF it were advisable but it isn't."

I bet you anything this organic, home sourced vaping company does NOT wash the blood off their zest, either. They don't know you; they don't care about you. Forget it on so many levels it's a WHOLE NOTHER LEVEL (I miss that pair, I really do, the TV show was so much better.)

Love, you really need a microplane zester. Also great for Parmigiano Reggiano that literally melts onto your pasta. I couldn't live (OK, cook) without mine. :)

In the citrus cases, they probably are. That's where most of the flavor is. And it's an oil in the skin. That's why people use zest in cooking and it adds a lot of flavor. I can't say for sure, but I sure as hell don't want to vape it.
Most of our citrus concentrates do start as oils but have been refined down to water soluble solutions safe for vaping.

Im not even sure caffeine is vapable.
On another note there have been caffeine laced nic juices on the market for years.
My fav. espresoo eliquid, Doppio espresso from TW, had caffiene, and that's why I stopped buying it. No reason to add caffeine. It is tasteless and adds nothing to juice except one more chemical.

Same could be said of nicotine.
Yeah, and there was lead in Flint's water for a long time too. ;)

No reason to vape caffeine, IMO. Drink it or get a capsule.

I suppose that's an interesting approach. I'm sure the pharma people will agree (gum, lozenge, patch, etc.)

But vaping supplies not only the habit to stop us from going back to smoking, but also the quick-nic-hit and the nic-o-stat metering thing in a way we're used to.

But none of us are used to getting caffeine from inhalation, or vitamins for that matter.

Besides, ingested nic screws up my stomach.

Outside of .... users we were't use to inhaling vapor either. Point is who are we to judge how one chooses to get their caffeine hit. IMO it's no different than the pot calling the kettle black.

Kinda random, but I'm planning to get some nicotine gum or something like it for my flight next week. Been years since I tried the gum. But I think it may be nice to have a little nic on the flight. I got pretty tense last time after ~8 hours without a vape. Not bad. But not preferable.

Caffeine should be drunk it's a quality of life issue, not a safety issue!

I have seen caffeine laced soaps and IDK it just seems wrong somehow. Maybe if you are in a hurry.

My son made me (nagged) let him buy that bacon soap. No maybe it was a trip where I was in some cool town and I got it for him because he missed it. I was pretty good at ignoring the nagging, usually.

Key word, it's not for you just as vaping isn't for some.
Not about me, but remember:
Vaping nicotine instead of smoking = risk reduction
vaping caffeine, vitamins, ...... = risk addition (until proven otherwise)
I guess some like to consume caffeine in a more risky way.
