Well aren't you special. :laugh:

And by the way, I didn't mean 'snob' in the 'uppity' sense. I mean that I'm particular about my flavors. You know, like a "coffee snob"? Or a "mac and cheese" snob? I like stuff that tastes really good to me and despise stuff that doesn't. I can't help it, I was born this way. I wasn't saying I was 'better' than anyone else. So if that's what you were getting at, kiss off.

I took it as a light hearted SNL church lady tease.

Oh yeah, I'm a picky eater. Chinese, Indian, Italian, Mexican, no THANKS. Burger n fries, Steak n potatos, please.

When I get bored/tired of a flavor, I just switch, and come back to it later. Usually have 4 cartos filled differently if my mood changes.

Since I got into DIY I've been doing a lot of that too to try new flavourings. Right now I have 5 CE2s on the go: Fresh spearmint, chocolate mint, oba oba (a kind of mildly sweet honeysuckle nectar/angel food cake thing), cinnamon coconut cookie (didn't come out right this time) and caramel coffee (made the coffee too strong, can't really taste the caramel). I switch between them all frequently.

I absolutely can not stand artificial sweeteners. So things like diet soda, certain gums, candies, and 'dessert' type items are off the menu for me. Same goes for e-liquids. If a vendor uses a heavy hand with sucralose, that e-liquid is worthless to me and if I try to force myself to vape it, I'll get a sour stomach. Now, e-liquids with ethyl maltol as the sweetener are just fine as it seems more natural and subtle to my taste buds.

That's just me, though. ;)

SOOO glad I am not the only one!!! I love sweets but only "certain" types of sweets,... can NOT handle the fake sugars most of the time and leave an AWFUL taste in my mouth! I guess this whole thread just goes to show you that each individual is just that, an individual and the taste will be different. That's why I am going broke right now trying different samples from almost every site suggested here :) Just HATE the mailbox wait :) Wish there was a faster way...... sigh

I am a picky eater, but I don't know if I'm a picky vaper yet. My first order was with a company that has so-so reviews. From what I've seen (long after ordering unfortunately) their products are somewhat inconsistent. I don't find the flavors that strong, I just did an order from Madvapes though, and hopefully their juices will be much more tasty. I guess I'll know how picky I am when I have more comparisons! I was really surprised to find out that I loved vaping peppermint even though I never liked menthol at all!

I was hoping so, too. At first I thought so, but then I read it again, and thought, "Wait a minute!" Maybe I'm just being overly-sensitive...which isn't like me... So if that's the case, I apologize, SwedishFish.

Swedish is a riot. You'll come to learn (and love) her humor.

I'm sorry! It cracked me up. I was just joking around. The way you phrased it was sort of funny.

I am both! I keep trying samples here and there to see if there is better out there but if i don't know if I'll like it I keep it down to 5 or less ml. And thanks to bmwjen's sample of ave's Hype I think I found a second all dayer to go with my lemonade from juicy vapor. Now time to stock up! Hope you find yours soon.

I have to say, I wish there was a place I could go and just taste everything. I ordered randoms from one place, and the 2 sample packs from JC.

I did find out I am not a fan of PG, as it makes it too harsh for me. Possibly still have a sensitive throat from only being 3 days off analogs. The Red Oak VG's are the only thing I like right now. I do have to throw out another vote for Tenn. cured tho. I just can't find it in my budget to order another 50 dollars in flavors that I am not sure if I will like, when I am supposed to be saving money by switching to vaping!
Probably just going to order a few bottles of what I liked from JC, roll with that till my money spent breaks even with my analog habit. I am already in the hole about 200.00.:blink:

In the ~5,000 posts I've read by SwedishFish, she has never been nasty in any way. Always
helpful and a pleasure. :)
Being she's from NJ, sometimes a little "Jersey Shore" humor,
but perfectly normal in NJ :lol:
