Unpopular opinion: I think we should be able to have flavored vapes. We have flavored cigars, flavored weed products, flavored alcohol, flavored medicine…it is dumb to think that vapes and cigarettes should be excluded from flavor for safety. If you want to stop kids from vaping, then apply the laws that already exist and start running some stings on convenience stores.
Furthermore, I see flavored Chinese vapes in every corner store in my state and the adjacent one. It seems that restricting the domestic manufacture of them has done diddly squat to reduce their availability.
I used vapes to quit cigarettes, and then patches and gum, and now it’s been close to 3 years since I last smoked. Changing the flavor depending on my mood was I think really good to dissassociate tobacco taste from the nicotine addiction. In my area there was a shop that made everything to-order, had a bunch of crazy recipes that changed every week and you could step the nicotine down to any %. He shook it up right there, it was a chill place too with games and vending machines while you wait. No judgement, very personal. Every time I came in he constantly tried to ask if I qualify for some discount or another, ‘are you a member of the local church?’, ‘are you a firefighter?’, and I’d have to keep saying no until he just picked a random one to apply lol.
They targeted vapes after wide adoption so the big cigarette manufacturers can cannibalize the established vape companies after tanking their market value.
