Speaking of bad flavor ideas... I just filled up a 2Ω Vision clearo with a bacon flavor with mixed results. The decision was kind of like passing by a big car accident on the freeway. You know someone got hurt real bad, but you just can't help slowing down and looking. Scrolling through the choices.. what's that?.. Bacon flavor? I giggled on the inside a minute and then thought WTF? Bacon goes with everything! So I clicked it into my cart with some other new stuff. It's a small bottle so no harm done if it doesn't work out, right?

The first few hits and I was thinking about this thread. It wasn't really pleasant tasting. Not quite bad enough to trigger a gag - just weird and not very bacony. More like something between a sour mop and feet. To the maker's credit, who shall remain unnamed, I did use a clearo that isn't working as I'd like. That way if I had to toss it, I wouldn't feel too hurt tossing that particular one. I also didn't rinse out the sour fruit flavor that I vaped until it was empty. Maybe that's what caused the sour flavor. Anywho...

A few more pulls and it just isn't getting better. Not quite as bad as at first. Just not good. Let it sit a minute then try again to see if it's any less gross. Puff puff. Then my battery (I'm rotating a couple 1000 mAh eGos on these clearos) starts flashing the dead signal. Hmmm. Been on that one since last night. Wonder if a hot battery will help this stuff out?

OK. Now the little atty is sizzling. Puff puff puff. Now the flavor is starting to change some more. The old flavor is finally coming out of the wick. Puff sizzle puff puff. Now that's more like bacon. Just not the kind I have for breakfast on Sunday mornings. More like something cooked over a charcoal grill with a couple of rubber bands or pieces of plastic thrown on the coals.

Still hitting it here and there. Puff puff puff. Tasting a little better, but just nothing even close to the real thing. The level is down 0.2 ml so this is about as good as it's gonna get now. Puff puff. Yeah... more car wreck than tasty strip of bacon. This little piggy is going in the box of unloved juices to be brought out for novelty or desperation purposes only.

Just say no to meat flavors.

I think what I've really learned in the past two years fooling with this stuff is: imagine that "flavor" as being available as a room deodorizer or perfume. Because that is what I believe the flavorings to essentially be the same as. Although, I'd have to guess a bacon Airwick would be better than the vape LOL.
I can't think of a meat I'd like to vape. Even bacon, the meat of the gods.

I used to own a gelato shop. We tried a flavor called Buttered Popcorn... I had my doubts about it. Wound up being my favorite flavor of all time. However, it really tasted like kettle corn, not buttered popcorn.

I have a bad flavor idea, but it is not appropriate to say. At all. :blush:

It's funny how you imagine a flavor, and when you try it it's so different. Does your flavor rhyme with worm? Another no go, by the way. Word to the wise.

Re: meat
I would probably buy fish stick flavor if they nailed it. Or the hush puppies with jalapeño and onion in them.

Drool drool.

So, what's the vape that tastes most like Teen Spirit deodorant? :D
Mmmm meat vapes... Mmm. I don't remember the smell of teem spirit, but we could try making some DIY teen concentrate. anyone have a teenager they could offer to science, or more nobly, vaping?

Actually, the Peach Watermelon Cantaloup I had recently was a lot like it. Would need to add a hint of baby powder to it.

And yes, this stuff is what the song by Nirvana was about.

Edited to add: Oh, and Teen Spirit is deoderant.

I knew that. I was actually suggesting, with my warped mind, that we reduce a teenager to concentrate using culinary methods. Be it known that this is tongue in cheek, and as a high school teacher it would be towards the last of resorts.
