Sorry Pbusardo, while a good reviewer, definetly did not coin the term taste is subjective. The pathophysiology of taste includes two different sensory systems at a minimum, and could be argued that all 5 senses are involved. It is impossible to give a definitive review of the flavor profile of a juice. It is possibly redundent to state taste is subjective, but is usually meant as a reminder to other people to proceed cautiously.
Really it is like when people come here asking for "the best rba" or the "what is the best juice" or "who makes the best juice" or "what is the best mod"
it is all so subjective. and when someone ask a question looking for "the best" there really is no "the best" because it all depends on our own subjective bias.
Like Reonaughts will say "The Reo is the best" well for them it is, it is a great device, but for me, I require a regulated mod... so for me a Reo is not "the best'...hence taste not only in juice but in product is SUBJECTIVE.

every person who tried my DIY Boston Cream Pie agreed that taste is subjective ... however, they also all said it tasted like crap
I congratulate you sir. You have broken through the subjective barrier.
On steeping - that entirely depends. When you're ordering stock juice from say, someone like Stinky Canucks - you can expect it to be steeped. I've never had a bottle of Stinky's that needed to be steeped. However, when I order from say, Evaperated - I don't like her stock 70/30 mix (and I think she's changed it now so that you can choose your mix anyway) so I would request a 60/40 and she would comply with my wishes and make me some the way I wanted it, or someone even more like that, dear Jugheads who lets you choose what colour toothbrush the guy uses the day he mixes it. They are mixed *for you* and if you want your vendor to steep the juice that you just ordered in a 65/35 mix in a 24 (because everyone keeps lots of premade 24s on hand) then I think you're asking a bit too much, m'dear. Or you better be prepared to wait for it anyway as it sits in their kitchen cupboard instead of yours. Sometimes juice needs to steep. So steep it. Or never order from anyone but vendors that don't offer you mix choices.
Wow. Maybe if reading other people's experiences is too much, and the way people write gets on your nerves, it's time to just step away from the computer for awhile.
I hear vaping is relaxing...but
it depends who you ask.

If you really have a problem with that how did you find a cigarette that you liked it cigar out whatever you used to get nicotine since that is subjective to our hire do you order at a new restaurant since you don't know what is decent there?
I've said Vader Pudding makes me hurl. I cannot even fathom how someone could like it, it's heavy and gross and horrible - and inevitably 10 people will jump in and tell me how much they LOVE Vader Pudding. You know, I like Swedish Berries and Carnival Caramel Apple from MLV. They're both really good, so it's obviously not the entire line, I just can't stand the mix. The mix that is possibly one of the most loved juices of all time. So, is it then cool for me to just slam it? Is that fair to MLV? It isn't because obviously other people like it fine and obviously I like two of their other juices very much. If someone skips over Vader Pudding because of a review I wrote, that loses MLV some sales and it loses that other vaper an opportunity to try something they might love. So, taste is subjective says to me - this probably isn't bad juice if that's your thing. Reviewing the flea market's house line, or maybe Gold Seal - then maybe we don't say that, right? So, sure - I can't review this because I don't like these flavours - but you go ahead and try it if you like custards, is what "taste is subjective" says to me. YMMV. ;-)
There are some people in this world (well a lot) that need to have their hands held when making decisions so being told "it's subjective" is exactly what they need to hear. If they are told it's wonderful, they buy it and if they hate it then omg you are horrible for mentioning it or they feel horrible and there must be something wrong with them because they don't like it as much as the others do etc. When I try something, no matter if I like it or hate it, I always say that for my own personal tastes it was either good or I didn't care for it but that we are all different blah blah blah. Some just need to be spoon fed a little bit, especially when first starting out in this vaping world. I would rather have someone tell me that "it's a personal choice" instead of just saying oh yeah it's wonderful, or oh hell no it sucked donkey... well you know what I mean 
Is the use of paragraphs subjective? Because I sure would have used them on that OP lol. With that said I'm sure you'd be surprised of what people had to be reminded of. This just happens to be one of them.
BTW I'm not starting a grammar war. There are grammatical mistakes in just about everyone of these sentences. It's just that paragraphs make it easier on the eyes, and I'm just poking around

I have a "taste is subjective" box full of various e-liquids in my closet...
For real.
I've got one of those in a drawer in my bedroom. I just can't seem to like any of the halo juices.

Have you tried their menthols? I like them--can't stand their tobaccos.
But, of course, that's just my opinion. YMMV
BTW--you can always PIF them, or trade them--there are plenty of people who might want them.

So... would you say your taste of these flavors is........ subjective?
