BackStory - The Foibles of Flavorings and their Fans
Welcome to BackStory. Here, @Daintanee and I hope to create a place to discuss DIY in a slightly different way. It is going to be a thread about specific flavors, percentages, and brands, their parentage, their bad habits, and their love lives, But most of all, it's going to be fun.
Yes, we are going to anthropomorphize (attribute human characteristics to) flavors.
This all came about with a post I made in the Flavour Art Club. Re-posted here:
------------------------------------------
Pear Affair
2.75% FA Pear
1.00% FA Cookie
1.00% FA Vienna Cream
1.00% FA Mango
0.50% FA Marshmallow
0.50% FA Cinnamon Ceylon
0.50% FA Vanilla Classic
0.50% FA Citrus Mix
0.25% FA Maple Syrup
0.25% FA Clove
Notes:
Pear: It's her party.
Cookie is invited everywhere.
Vienna Cream called Vanilla Classic and they decided to add some upscale taste to the party.
Mango figured Pear might need a bit of help.
Marshmallow came just to ogle Pear's bottom.
Cinnamon Ceylon snatched her husband Clove out of a poker game."You always come home smelling of cigars" she exclaimed as she dragged him to Pears bottle..
Citrus Mix and Maple Syrup hit it off surprisingly well, possibly setting off a new civil war with the birth of their son Bergamot.
Shake and vape.
This recipe is best vaped warm. How you make it so is your choice.

No Caddy, I was making yours you silly boy! But I didn't know you left bergamot out, and guestimated you put .25% in.
So can I play too? I love stories! My husband, our kids, and I will go in turns telling parts of a story. We make up a lot of silliness .... like 2 big fat kids in search of a candy cottage.
Since I hate leaving people feel left out.....
Citrus mix and Maple syrup were distraught at their son bergamot leaving due to the war that began due to the monster of a mother in law named mango. Thy went in search of bergamot and found him with a honey and a white peach and returned home. Mango fell so in love with the sweet little honey and the bright white peach that the war ended and they all lived happily ever after.
Added .25% bergamot
.5% white peach
.5% honey
-----------------------------------------------------------------
We started talking behind the scenes and decided to see if perhaps others might like to join in, either commenting or started a new story with a flavor that is perplexing them.
In the end, we hope to learn a lot and have a bit of fun at the same time. Please join us.
To that end, here is the beginning of a recipe you might be interested in. I don't know where it will end up nor even if it will end.
Pineapple.
The fortunate daughter of tryst between Fuji Apple and a cactus with Japanese parentage that Fuji Apple
met while on a picture taking journey with her photography club in the Desert Southwest, was sitting at
the edge of the beach watching the surfers and wondering if this was all there was to existence.
Pineapple, startled by a sudden thump as Coconut falls down beside her splashing sand all over, jumps up.
"Hey, you brute, Go away" she yells.
"Hi there sweet stuff." cooed Coconut. "Want to mix it up a little?"
"No"
"You really enjoyed it last time."
"I know, but we're too strong together" said Pineapple "We're too overwhelming and people can
smell us a mile away."
"Yeah, I remember" replied Coconut, "the post office banned us, but it was worth it.
"Yeah." sighed Pineapple.
Starting point.
FA Pineapple 2.5%
FA Coconut 1.5%
Can you help Pineapple and Coconut in their quest to co-exist without annoying everyone else about them? Or will they have to just move on and forget their dreams.
Flavors, percentages, and brands are all fair game. Adding to the story is especially encouraged
