I often wonder how the edible world affects our vaping impressions. I like grapefruit. Both for eating and drinking. I went into this recipe with an expectation and what I got was something radically different. Is that because the flavor was awful or because it came nowhere near my expectation? I suspect there is at least a little of both.
Most of the things I like in real foods, I also like in vaping, but still haven't mastered strawberries or blackberries (that I love the real thing) and totally can't find a cherry vape that works. Tobaccos are different... no such things in vaping that tastes like an analog (thank goodness) I wouldn't really want it to. Still, I love my tobacco mix with some RY4 and "nutty" PUR sweet tobacco. Still vape it every day. Can't wait to try NETs. Taste is TOTALLY subjective for sure. Also, there can be a big difference between flavor brands (and it's not like one brand is best at everything... one has the best "this" and another has the best "that" flavor)

    There’s some things I like in food but not in vapes but not a lot. You’re very right about taste being subjective.
    I think you will like the NETs. Have you ordered any yet?

    It had a hole in it ?
    I can't resist... I used to go to this old school coffee place (long before starbucks... mostly old timers reading the newspaper) it was called "Harry's" (the owner of course) and there was a sign on the wall "Confucius says keep eye on donut not on hole" :lol:

    I don't believe I have ever had acai in any form. What an interesting flavor. Definitely in the berry family.
    I haven't tried it but if you used berry and licorice in the same sentence, I'm all over it! Haven't tried licorice vape but love real stuff so very interesting.

    Just wanted to say this thread is really going strong... good vibes all around.
    I’d like to think it’s a good place for seasoned mixers to hang out as well as new mixers.

    Somewhere between here and there
    I finished a bottle of one of my cheesecakes awhile back and I have another bottle of cheesecake almost empty. I do have others but I’m never more than 2 down so I have to mix those soon.

    The only cheesecake I’ve been using is your mixed berry cheesecake.

    I don’t remember what brand but somewhere I have licorice flavors. I also picked up one from Diyflavorshack I think it was that tastes just like good and plenty candy.
