If you want savoury, you may have to venture into mixing and Flavourart's Brave section where they have such tasty treats as Bacon, Roast Chicken and Bone Marrow. And good luck to you, you courageous soul! Mixing is probably going to be your best bet for the more interesting and less sweet flavours anyway, as you can add as much or little sweetener as you like and delve into all kinds of weird and wonderful flavours. You could whip up a really tangy lemon for instance. Or Black Sesame. Or indeed, stick to the baccy flavours. Sorry, that's probably not all that much help, now I read it back!  |

(and did Rom supply the picture of the "shiny evod rainbow of financial doom"  ) Well, well. That is just something. I need to claim the expression "shiny evod rainbow" for the oxford dictionary so Jen gets the glory 10 of them were from FT in the clone deal, the rest are all genuine. I do love them so and that is an excellent term |

That's what cookies do, some of them - they recognise you and they're sending anonymised data back to Google (Analytics) and a whole host of other companies that pay for the service who, in turn, use it to advertise at you. You can take measures against it if it really bothers you, such as Firefox's pr0n private window mode or some bits of software and so on. But that's kinda the price you pay for the internet and a lot of sites being free.
Tis the old adage - if it's free, you are the product.

FA Cookie is fantastic - about 7% mixed with the fruit or dessert flavour of your choice is just lovely (hint: try lemon and cardamom  ) Maybe a drop or two of acetyl pyrazine to bring out the bakery. FA Meringue is STRONG, be very careful, you could literally over-egg your pudding. Cap Cake Batter I'd recommend around 7-12% with maybe 7% FA Cocoa or any fruit that takes your fancy |

Ever tried tasting without knowing what it is you're eating? It's hard! Like those blind tests on Hell's Kitchen, it takes a very experienced palate to get it right 9 times out of 10. Especially with artificial flavours like most e-juices are. I'm amused but not surprised |

Too much flavouring can result in a weirdy metallicy soapy taste - not nice. If you like blueberry - try Capella Blueberry, it's soooo good In fact, if you're having problems, try making a few standalones or 2-flavour mixes. I started off trying to make complicated recipes and ended up with total crapola. |

Don't give up hope just yet! A lot of flavourings sold aren't great standalones. Some recipes just aren't brilliant. As dragon says, your taste buds can take holidays every now and again. If your Irn Bru is CCW - it'll be pants, that flavouring is total rubbish. I've made countless mixes in my mixing past, I vape maybe 5 of them on a regular basis! It's all part of the fun |

I'm assuming it's roughly the same size as an Evic if the tubes are interchangeable - if so, don't sweat the size. You get used to it surprisingly quickly and then all your Spinners you loved so much start to feel all flimsy! Not sure I'd take it out and about, but it does make a helluva difference It's actually 10mm longer jen, but slightly lighter in weight. That's 'roughly' ain't it? I quite fancy the purple one myself...can't justify buying another mod though! |

It's not unpleasant, but it is weird! Take some scissors to it and find out for yourself |

So you managed to at least open the bottle JenI heard a rumour that it was buscuity, but until I get the blasted top of it will remain a rumour  I didn't get biscuity - I got weird kind of creamy fruit that remind me of something from my childhood but I'm b*ggered if I can remember what! Very weird. And Hypnotic Mist - neither misty nor hypnotic. Sort of dried apricotty. |
