Menthol - an important message

[The Vaper's Tongue]

NEVER buy any juice with menthol in it.
- But I like menthol!
No you don't
- Yes I do!
No you don't. What you like is mint as used in Mint Chocolate Ice Cream and other juices of beauty. Mint is a delicate herbal fragrance. Menthol is the foul vapour from the devil's own bottom.
- But I like menthol cigarettes.
That's different. Menthol fags allowed you to smoke while pretending it was fresh and wholesome. Look at the nice green packets, everyone.
- I'm still not convinced.
Last try. Here are three reasons never to buy menthol again:
1. It tastes disgusting
2. It's poisonous (no, honestly).
3. It's irresistibly invasive. If you bring a sealed bottle of any juice containing menthol within ten feet of your vaping equipage, every juice you own will immediately taste of menthol. All your tanks and wicks and mods and hands will stink of the stuff forever. Menthol cannot be defeated. Soak your tanks in battery acid, sandblast them, subject them to a thermo-nuclear blast, they will still stink of menthol.
- You exaggerate, I think.
Really. I buried mine in a deep pit miles from my home. I can still smell them.

I'll tell my chemist to take it off the shelves too, damn I have a snotty nose too

It's words like that in a forum that can be searched by Google that will attract the wrong attention. I hope there's good cause!!

If it was meant as a joke then it isn't.

I believe there's actually some truth in it. It's not the first time it's been mentioned. doesn't stop me using it

If you think menthol is persistent, try LT Rose. It's a lovely fragrant flavour, really enjoyable and one of my faves. Trying to eliminate it from your equipment afterwards is quite another matter!

It's not really poisonous. I included that for comic effect. Why do I feel I have to explain this?

Because someone questioned it? I get the comedy, but someone visiting or googling for info on menthol may not. No worries, I get the joke now
