there seems to be quite a bit of trade show events etc around March 2016. strangely enough they let you ask for a sample.... but who knows if they will actually send it to just anyone. i did list what my intentions were: to get away from PG.
if Zenea/Propanediol does become the new PG,, i would expect the current inventory of PG to go through a major price decrease coming soon.
anyway,, Propanediol is worth looking into,,i suspect a lot of our vapors tongue is related to PG,, i am not so sure about our mouths/lungs as a 'cooked vapor',,sure its fine as a passing item on its way to stomach acid in the form of foods/meds.
the reason i suspect PG for VT,, is because of a chemical plastic taste that seems to ride along,,,,,,read: oil/crude byproduct ++ the same theories being used,, dont seem to apply to say,, eating/drinking only the same thing for days/weeks/years on end.......
