I quit cigs 20 years ago after about 20 years of Camel shorts, but didn't stop chewing. Copenhagen then became a food group. My dentist says my mouth is fine but it's a nasty habit and harder to break than cigs I think. I've entertained the notion of using eCigs instead and even bought a starter pack. Don't remember the brand. No foo foo flavors for me, just tobacco and strong please. Not bad really, but I haven't made the leap yet. Good for you JP. Of course, if your heart health is an issue you're probably fooling yourself. It's the Nic that nails your heart, so it doesn't matter how you get it.

I would make sure I was smoking U.S. made liquid. No telling what the Chinese are putting in theirs.

Exactly...it's just mist.

The friend that mixes these guarantees all ingredients are made in the USA. She uses a 60/40 mix of VG and PG juice. One gives more vapor, the other the throat hit...meaning it not only tastes like a real cig, but feels like it in the throat as well.

I have read a number of stories where people have used the 0 nicotine flavors to quell appetite cravings as well. I have one tank with Watermelon 0 nic juice, and have become rather fond of it. My friend is working on a Honeysuckle flavored one just for me. As kids, we both grew up with honeysuckle growing in the area, and have fond memories of the wonderful yet light aroma it put in the air. She hopes to have a sample sent to me by the end of next week. If it's as good as I hope, it will be another flavor to add to the rather sizable box of flavors she gave me.

By cutting the bottles with 0 nicotine flavors, I'm cutting the total nicotine levels. That should help the heart issues...and make the doctor happy as well.
