I don't think that's vegan
Sure it is I eat Vegetables regularly. Pesticides are another issue though since I do vape
Not trying to diminish the impact of your daughter's condition. For people actually suffering from Celiac's, having the options for gluten-free products is not a matter of choice but one of necessity. Sadly, the health zealots who have more fear than understanding have pushed the marketing of gluten-free products into the realm of buzzword marketing.
Some vendors do have the facilities to do GC/MS analysis in-house and use them to verify the purity of their incoming PG, VG, and nicotine. They include COAs when you buy from them. The best nic I've found comes from a vendor who does that. OTOH, I actually prefer the PG and VG that comes from another, lower-cost vendor who doesn't.
As for the rest:
- A few people do have a legitimate need for PG-free e-liquids. But I'm not one of them.
- Artificial colors contribute nothing to the vape itself, so I think it makes sense to avoid them.
- Artificial flavors are probably safer for inhalation than natural extracts because they are comprised of fewer distinct compounds.
- Artificial sweeteners are pretty much a must if you want sweeteners at all because natural sugars would gum up coils in no time.
- Organic strikes me as an oxymoron in e-juice for reasons others have already mentioned.
- Vegan: I suspect just about all e-juice would qualify for this description, but since I eat plenty of animal products, it's not something that I care about at all.
- GMO-free: Nature has been doing genetic engineering by trial-and-error for several billion years. I don't see a problem with people helping her along.
In the end, most of these descriptions don't matter to me at all. What matters to me is minimizing my exposure to substances that are widely regarded as toxic to lung tissue. I'm sure you know the ones I mean. But even then, the phrase "xxxx-free!" on a website or product label wouldn't mean much to me. Show me the test results, or I'm not buying.
Nor is human "interference" anything new either. Purposeful cross-polination and grafting have been going on for a millennia. Now the practice is getting more precise with modification on targeted genetic sequences. It's not like they're trying to cross an ear of corn with a cow's rectum…
Ohh so you missed that article?Nor is human "interference" anything new either. Purposeful cross-polination and grafting have been going on for a millennia.

I like corn with my hot dogs
I really don't care for vaping artificial sweeteners. As far as organic juice goes I wouldn't presume it to be any healthier than artificial flavors. I actually mainly vape unflavored Pg/VG Nic base and have come to like the pure Nic hit, reminds me more of cigarettes than fruit flavors haha. I sometimes lightly flavor the Nic base.
Ummmm... Kind of depends whether it's just a peck, or something more elaborate, right?I don't think that's vegan
I use USP grade to ensure purity, beyond that everything is market hype designed to play off people's lack of understanding/fears.
I use what works for me. Many of the artificial flavorings are horrible tasting or cause bad side effects for me. So when I find one I like and it likes me I am happy.
Diketone/AP ridden Capella Vanilla Custard V1 is heavenly.

A pack of cookies SHOULD have a 2-3 year shelf life. That is normal as I see it at Walmart all the time. Are you gonna tell me next that Twinkies aren't organic?
The new twinkies are not as good as the old ones.
Well maybe good is not quite the correct word to use...
DARNED good point there.It is gong to be hard to get your nic-fix, since nicotine is a natural pesticide
However if someone does want some no artificial ingredient flavorings this place has the bestest blueberry I have tried. flavorconcentrates.com.
