I truly didn't believe this would actually happen...

If you have ANY menthol or mint hook it up to your PV and just vape. It's my go-to flavor when I can't taste anything, or everything just tastes wacky!

I do...I have a wee bit of BWB menthol left...I used it the first couple weeks, as a cleanser for the pallate! LOL...Didn't even think to try it now in my time of need :p


Thanks all!!

Yeah I think with cigarettes well we are getting (were getting) so many different chemicals and flavors mixed in and smoke is so harsh that the loss of flavor doesn't really happen as much. But vape is just mostly water vapor so much more subtle and our taste buds as well as our throats get used to it quickly. Only solution then can be to up the nic and the flavoring / or switch to menthol.

Also with cigs, the nicotine hit is instant so we are fooled into thinking we are satisfied more quickly.

Obviously this technology is yet to be perfected and can be a lot more hassle than smoking (and for me more expensive so far by a long chalk.) I guess it's all down to the individual and how much they want to get off the cigarettes. I'll still have a few when drunk as I'd need like 40mg of nic and mad strong flavors to notice vaping then tbh. But when sober I still enjoy vaping better as no lethargy, congestion or smell, despite it having been frustrating for the last few days. Nothing is perfect eh...

I guess when going through these unsatisfying cycles one must just think of the pv as less somethig of a treat to be enjoyed and back to just a tool to get rid of that cigarette craving and be happy for that small thing in and of itself huh? And maybe treat oneself to a nice cafe mocha or beer as an alternate treat....

Yo iceman...my offer still stands. Send me ALL your best juices and I will endure the task of vaping each and every one and then convey to you at great lengths just how good they are. In this way, you can still kinda enjoy your juices and I will be the one to suffer any strange after effects.
Hey Bro - we got to stick together and sometimes it requires a sacrifice.:vapor:

It definitely helps :D Especially an "arctic ice" like flavor that has no true flavor. Works like a charm. A few days ago I actually posted a go-to flavor thread about what flavors everyone goes to when all else is either not tasting right, or just not up to par that day. :laugh: Our taste buds can be wacky. :vapor:

its happening to me now. i love vaping blueberry, and i have a few variations from several companies, and i cant taste blueberry in any of em. hope it passes soon! i can taste all of my other flavors just fine!

It could be that your taste buds have adjusted to the blueberry flavor. This happens to me when I vape my Chocolate Eclair flavor. The flavor comes back again after I've vaped something completely different like Peach.

My company sometimes has meetings with customers, and they order food into the conference room. Since I started vaping, I can't eat the muffins. I used to taste the muffin (sort of) and got some sweet. Now they're overpoweringly sweet, and I can taste everything in them. I taste the oil, I taste the flour, they're just not good.

So getting your tastebuds back can be a two-edged sword. ;)
