Help! Newbie here, and 2 of my favorite flavors are based on things to avoid?!?

Hi There! Second time newbie here.

Was on cigalikes and they weren't enough for me, so I fell back to smokes, and have recently come back with an eVic, as well as letting go of the need to find a tobacco simulating flavor.

I've been on a liquid buying rampage that I'm hoping to curb for a while. (I have about 500 ml of various juices here, and have decided not to buy more until I start emptying some of these bottles.)

I really like Jett Fuel's Papi Churro and five pawns' Absolute Pin. But, I've heard the we should avoid cinnamon and liquorice flavors? Can I get clarification on what components we should avoid? I can't find it, but I ran across a thread saying that it was the type of component used that was important to avoid with cinnamon, and I was wondering if it was the same case with the anise flavor in Absolute Pin. Anyone know if these liquid makers are using the non-harmful stuff?

Thanks in advance!

Not sure if there's been any reason to avoid these flavors other than the possibility of damage to plastic tanks, but here's some good info on the whole Cinnamon flavoring issue: Taste Your Juice | HEADS UP ON CINNAMON FLAVORED E-LIQUIDS – UPDATED!!

Thanks for the helpful link. Still reading, but now I'm wondering if the Wild West atmosphere is showing its head. I can't find anywhere that lists ingredients or components to either juice. I understand it's to protect their recipes, but now no confirmation that the juice suppliers are doing due diligence in their work.

Any other input about anise/liquorice/absinthe flavors?

Other than possibly needing a glass tank, there's nothing I know of wrong with vaping those flavors.

I vape Absolute Pin in all tanks, not just plastic, and I haven't had a problem!

I'm not sure if you are citing the misinformation scare about cinnamon flavorings that was outed as really bad science. If that's what you were reading, retractions and "never minds" were also posted as well. Then the subject disappeared off the ECF radar.

I bet if you asked Jake who makes nude nicotine he could give you a good detailed answer, he's a chemist. You could send him an email from his site, or he also has a thread in the suppliers forum here.
I never heard anything bad about licorice or anise flavoring though.
