Flavoring with vape juice

Post by the_bard »

Bubblegum vodka etc, anyone tried this?

There are literally 100's of flavors to try and I assume if they can be inhaled they must be safe?

Oh and anyone here from UK with stilldragon kit?

Knowing that many flavorings are made with Castoreum (beaver anal glans secretion) and Lanolin (wool oil gland secretion) and the list goes on... and are labeled/certified as "natural flavorings" and are for the most part non-toxic and used in vape juices, they could be safe. but the question is why would you want to.....

I'm sure they are safe but they are pretty much just artificial flavors used in candies, kool-aid (drink powders) and such.

One plus is that you can forego the sugar in candies and drink mixes and leave it out or use something like stevia.

Here is a thread about using candy: Candy Infusions

Desvio said, "many flavorings are made with Castoreum (beaver anal glans secretion)".

When a dog goes through the full wash and extras I believe the attendant presses the anal glands to press out the secretions...

Just saying....

Because ya can inhale it I wouldn't necessarily say its safe to drink, you can inhale eucalyptus oil or Vicks for a cold but drinking them might give ya a nasty case of rigor mortis.

Why not? They are food flavorings.

Well, since most have nicotine in 'em. Which I don't think is safe to ingest.

I was going to chirp up yesterday with exactly the same point Corsair makes, but seein' as it's so long since the question was asked I thought - "well he'll be dead or given up by now" - Nicotine is NOT for ingesting ! -

We smoke a cigarette and feel little ill effect - but try EATING one ! Please do that before using one of these things as a flavouring for drink. It will probably not kill you but will make you sick enough hopefully to bin this ridiculous idea !

You can't flavor with vape juice itself, but you can use the same flavorings that are used to make vape juice. I've done it many times. The flavor concentrates can be ordered from places like this: https://shop.perfumersapprentice.com/c- ... avors.aspx" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" rel="nofollow

True but they have 0 nic juice.

In the vape community the question is backwards, just because vape juice is made with food flavorings doesn't mean that it is safe to inhale. So the flavorings themselves (without nicotine) are considered safer to ingest.

ETA: Of course it's probably cheaper to just use flavorings from the baking/candy making section of the supermarket then paying the hiked up prices of e-juice.
