The kids like Flavors claim

[K-Woodz]

THIS ^^^ make kids break in drinking bourbon or scotch, like we did in the old days...

If it didn't taste like hops or an oak barrel, it wasn't available in my house growing up. I'll never forget that first sip of whiskey. I couldn't believe people drank the stuff.

Now I can't believe it when full grown men show up to barbecues with lime flavored beer and cake flavored Vodka...

As far as liquor, flavored crap should be banned just because it is disgusting.

But.... I um like that flavored crap.... just sayin'.

of course I am a girl and I think beer smells like 10 year old horse pee and reg. vodka and yager tastes like

I love the jagermeister flavored nyquil.

I love the jagermeister flavored nyquil.

And vice versa.

I think we need to ban cooking shows on TV, especially those that are oriented to "cooking for the family" (Create Appealing Meals Your Kids Will Love to Eat!).

Is this not encouraging kids to like flavors? The danger isn't kids liking ecig flavors, the danger is kids liking flavors. (Maybe some researching geneticist will come up with a way to edit out the flavor-loving gene in utero...)

Problem solved.

Simple solution to the flavor debate. Have all vendors insert the word vodka IE.. Gummy bear vodka flavor, cotton candy vodka flavor etc... Even though there is no vodka flavor involved. Perhaps then the kiddie flavor bashes will see the insanity of their claims.

Went to the liqueur store the other week and was shocked at all the "flavored" spirits. Vodka now has as many flavors as e-liquid, many fruity and candy flavors.

So the same argument can be made for the alcohol industry as the vape market.

Quoted for truth. My exact thought. But in many states liquor stores are state owned and a huge source of revenue, so they probably won't be attacking booze any time soon. But hey, it's parental indifference/negligence/complacency which allows kids to drink, same with e-liquids.

brb while i vanilla vodka in my cream soda with my RY4.

At the Facebook page of Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids (who are against e-cigs / vaping), they had posted this..




I easily modified it to this..

I like this idea. Or the one where vendors insert the words "premium cigar" as in, "premium cigar grape flavor." That way, we'd be exempt from the regulations, and appeal to only the (wealthy) adults.

If its all about "for the children", then why the hell can't they add two numbers together?

 

[entoptic]

I realize this thread is directed specifically about flavors....
What about the children who grow up without grandparents that died due to tobacco carcinogens?

what is an ANTZ? they sound really unpleasant!

oh, just my thing on flavors. I strongly feel that it was because of having a wide variety of flavors that I was able to find one that I liked. that was really key in switching over for me. Oh, and the flavor was cinnamon red hot. I rarely vape that one now in favor of flavors that I can now taste since I have a better sense of taste and smell.

If you hover over the word ANTZ as it appears in a post, you'll get the answer. But to be direct with you, it stands for Anti-Nicotine and Tobacco Zealots.

And yes, they are really unpleasant.

Cinnamon is a top flavor choice for me currently. When I first started vaping it was Cola. I still love exploring flavors and there's so much exploring to do!

“You want to be cool? Well, you can actually hold one of these things and look like you’re Gloria Swanson. Was that her name?” Senator Rockefeller said.

Gloria Swanson???!!!
Maybe we need to ask them who are these "kids" they refer to - I'm beginning to think it's anyone under 50 yrs old.

Um, that's why they have children, because they can't add? (they can only multiply)

 

[Mogar]

The best way I have ever seen as a responce to the age old statemet is this:
The Government is banning more and more "flavored" tobacco as its aim is to lure kids to smoking...
Who the heck are the makers of Bubblegum Flavored Condoms marketing to?????

Came for the nicotine, stayed for the flavors.

The simplicity and truth of this made me smile!

Wouldn't that make kids want to drink it even more?

 

[215Z]

I don't give my kids orange juice. They're going to want to then drink screwdrivers. Gateway snack time drinks...
