I just placed a small order, got about $10 off and free shipping. Total was $42.61 after discounts. I have no recommendations, we all like different things, but I will say I have quite a few jungle flavors and I've not been disappointed in any of them. The few flavor express flavors are also good, but I don't have enough to give an opinion.

I have not tried it, but I heard oak milk is pretty good. It's not a milk flavor, I think it's a creamy bourbon sort of flavor but I am not sure. I got a lot of new to me flavors in this order. Exciting!

Wanted to try JF Double RY4 too.

    I really hope it all works out in you favor.

    Thanks Fran! I think it will..

    She is adorable.

    Have you contacted a lawyer? That may be money well spent.

    :)

    That is exactly the route I am prepared to go. I have photos from when I was 9 years old holding the parents, so there is proof that I have never poached any animals I now have. I mention that because that's the first thing wildlife officials generally think.

    My husbandry is top notch as well so they can't take them due to poor conditions.

    I have a feeling it's just gonna be one of those jumping through hoops over fire type deals. I think it will all work out in the end.

    Couldn't you just live wherever and live off the turtle income?

    .

    My wife's career advancement is something that has taken us all over and it's important to her. We have turned down opportunities in Georgia and North Carolina because of the terrapins. Terrapins are native there and a protected species. They are also native to Florida and protected as well, but Florida is a little more forgiving in that you can have two per member of the household. I was also considered grandfathered in under the regulations, being a wildlife rehabber there helped both mine and their cause.

    I even wanted to offer my services here , because I am knowledgeable on all the species in the US.

    Does anyone know a good butter replacement for Flavorah butter?

    I have golden butter by Capella but I'm thinking it's not necessarily a good replacement butter for the flavorah..

    Should I stick with Capella or is there another brand that's a better swap?

    I like Capella golden butter and for my taste I don't dare take it over 1%. Get's little twangy above 1%..... I usually try to keep it around .75%. I have never used Flavorah's version so I cannot tell you if it is a viable replacement though. Others may chime in.

    Good to know my research agrees with yours (mine is from DIYorDie "Noted", reddit and here on ECF)
    Will check into ATF... not sure where to find the flavors/vendors info.

    Google--Top Jungle Flavors All the Flavors and the link will provide just that search on the mentioned website. Then Google--Top Flavor Express All the Flavors for the same.. Both searches will pull of the flavor list for each vendor and you can scroll through and see how many recipes are made with each flavor. It's kind of a good way to catch wind of which flavors are more popular.

    I forgot to add. Don't go by the percentage, I think that's an average on what percentage they use in various recipes. Use the numbers under the name heading, that's the number of recipes on the site that uses that particular flavor.

    I go by what works best in recipes.. mine are far more complicated than most (5-10 ingredients) and butter flavoring is used minimally for what it adds.. in this case I'm going for the perfect buttery flaky crust and need an additional butter on top of what I'm already using.

    While I've never used JF Bavarian creme I use a LOT of Bavarian creme and so have to order 4 ounce bottles at a time... you won't have any issues using that amount, mistake or no..

    True. I like the TFA version but have heard the JF version is very good also. I have recently stopped purchasing 10ml sizes of flavors I am reordering. I figured I needed to bypass the 10ml bottle of Bavarian Cream JF even though I never tried it. 60mls should take me to the end of ME(lol).

    @hittman I believe it was you with the general snus recommendation.. Is the wintergreen any good?

    I went with General snus white, 2 cans. Should work out just great for the train ride. $6.60 each.. boy, I'm glad this is a rare occasion. I'm so used to ultra low cost of vaping. I went to a liquor store to get it, first time I've been in one since I quit drinking nearly 2 years ago. No temptation or thoughts at all of getting a drink. Just nicotine on the brain :lol:

    Sorry I'm so late answering. I had a service call to do calibrations today and between the call and paperwork, I just got a minute now to check the forum. To answer your question, I hate the wintergreen. It is disgusting to me. Some people like it. Its either love or hate with that one.It looks like you already made a choice and the white original is one of two I was going to suggest. The general mint is my all time favorite of any snus but I will on occasion grab a can of the original white.

    If the Desert Ship is anything like FA, start low, like 1%. Strong stuff :)

    I bet he'd take $3500 with shipping included. I thought about offering him a trade. He's been trying to get one of my gems that I am holding for a future breeding group for a while. He has over 40 breeding females where as I have 3. My 3 usually put out an average of 50 hatchlings a year. He sells mainly overseas so to see one of his offered here is pretty rare. I sell mainly domestically but have sold a few to an exporter at a much higher price.

    If the Desert Ship is anything like FA, start low, like 1%. Strong stuff :)

    Thanks for the advice. I did peruse the reviews and someone said something along those lines.

    No worries. Thanks for the reply. I ended up getting the White because that is all they had left of any flavors. I didn't feel like hunting around, so looked up that it had a bergamot flavor, and I was in. I'll take your word for it that wintergreen sucks, and it was destiny for me to get white. Thanks again for the recommendation.
