PG Versus VG

So I just heard that some cartridges or eliquids (not sure which) have vegetable glycerine as opposed to propylene glycol. What, if any, are the differences in taste etc? How can you tell if you're allergic to one or the other? Which is better health wise? Do they have vg cartridges for the Vapor King (or KR808D in general)?

VG has a slightly sweeter taste (not everyone can even tell this). VG is somewhat thicker than PG and thus can produce more vapor.

Most juice is PG based and produces more than enough vapor. Some people are allergic to PG and thus need to use VG based liquids..........

Not really a lot of difference unless you are allergic............
 
You don't know that you have a PG sensitivity until you give it a try! I used PG, got a horrible sore throat, switched to VG (which in my opinion was less throat kick) and after a month or two switched back to PG, the second time around, I got a sore throat for a few days but then it went away! Hope that helps. :) PG tends to be sweeter also.
