That is one reason I LOVE them.. no glue or plastic taste! If you flip your box over you can get a production date.. what date is on yours? I also have purchase MANY green carts and never once got a defective one.. nor have had an atty die on me. Drew still has some in stock and soon they will have Drew's Lung juice inside! We are all very excited about this!If anybody has a new greencig cart that does not taste like vaping plastic/glue, please PM me and I will gladly pay for it. Judging my the incredible feedback these carts receive, I am pretty sure the carts I purchased are defective.
