One of those days

Ever have one of those days when your all day vape tastes like a dirty dish rag?
You try a drop or two of something different and it tastes worse or no has flavor at all.

yes that so happens - water / lemon juice / actual real food type stuff .. ie fruit etc - still takes a day to 'reset' at least. bleh

Lord, yes. Sometimes every damn thing I put in my mouth tastes like the bottom of a shoe or something. I think it's just the on-going healing of smoker's tastebuds; they're letting us know they really didn't care for however many decades of smoke we inflicted on them. :D

Sometimes a new wick and/or coil can help, and a RADICALLY different flavor of some kind, whether food/drink or vape or all the above. Sometimes you just have to wait it out, usually a day or two. And be happy that you're no longer adding to the problem with smoke. :)

good point! I usually classify flavors of juice as in "Low note" "High note" Low notes being custard / choc / butterscotch / caramel etc
and High notes being /most fruits .. citrus is good / tart stuff / sharp sweet candyish flavors .. I tend to switch up that way when the taste is not there ..

The Taste buds are organized by sweet / sour / base etc... need to switch from one to the other sometimes.

Also... and I don't know if other vapers have experienced this, or not. But since I'm so much more able to SMELL now, sometimes I go around just completely grossed out all day long at the smell of the world, and even my own home, and my vape, and just freaking EVERYTHING. I think it might be an aspect of the same kind of healing, but more olfactory than gustatory; really strong smells do have the power to incite emotion, disgust, sometimes even nausea. And everything smells DIFFERENT. And lots worse than I ever knew it smelled, before I knocked off the coffin nails.

Sounds like a job for a minty vape.

I get like that once in a while having the same flavored juice as a main ADV for about 5 years now, so I try something different from time to time , to see if I can find an alternate, I have found 2 others, still looking for that 3rd.

I don't have that problem often as I have several flavors going at a time here, and alternate between them every 10 pulls or so. When it does happen, I've found that vaping some of my lemon based juices does the trick for me.

I travel a lot for work, I always bring 5 bottom feeders with me with different flavors in them. I have given up chasing the holy grail of an ADV, there are too many good recipes out there to limit myself to just one.

I have that going on right now, though it is my own fault as I mixed too much INW Watermelon flavoring and added it to my tank without testing it. Accck! Oh wait, the added strawberry cream mix is toning it down to something worthwhile. Whew. I hope I can fix the bottled mix. Custard fixes everything, haha.
