How do you vape solely vg? There aren't that many flavors available.
Okay, you're crazy But your breakfast sounds delicious! Mmmm, baconI still fry my eggs in the bacon fat..call me crazy
Now there is a good example of misinformation. Just because you read something on the internet does not make it true.
I have read the actual reports given so far and your claims are simply not true.
At this time, there is not a single thing that says short or long term inhalation of acetoin at the levels found in flavors cause any negative health affects. Not one. Even diacetyl is just a "maybe". No one actually knows if any of them are harmful at all. To state anything different is misinformation or as you put it, ignorant or dishonest.
Love you LV. Capisce! =)Errr, say what??? And just what is your authority for making such blanket -- and erroneous -- statements? How about posting up an image showing your PhD in medicine, biochemistry, mico-biology. I have ZERO TOLERANCE for any spreading FUD on this topic. Here is one, just one, study directly refuting such nonsense.

People want to know when this crap is in their juice. Okay? Got it? Kabesh? I personally believe some suppliers should already be occupying prison cells for fraud and criminal negligence. You might want to do a little research just to how many millions of dollars were paid by popcorn manufacturers on lawsuits and legal fees -- over TEN YEARS AGO. Don't play games -- get that shit out of our juice -- or you're certain to suffer the consequences.

Good. You may want to read up on how long term effects are estimated/determined in scientific research. This is how it's done, and has been done over the last century.
I just read this on the internet !Now there is a good example of misinformation. Just because you read something on the internet does not make it true.

how can you say time is right and in the same breathe acknowledge there are no studies. what ground do you stand on with that ? Im trying to make light on the subject and throw some jokes in here because this whole mess has caused a lot of chaos in this section of vaping underground. lines have been drawn and sides have been taken and its all stupid. we should all be on the same team. why is one better than the other because it fits a certain agenda or preference ? there are obviously studies that show everyone here is right. so lets talk about all of it or none of it . we should be concerned with all of it. why leave anything un tested. I for one am sick of it all I almost hate logging on here anymore. its like election season lol.
just because it hasnt been tested for does that mean I should not be concerned about it ? what if I want to be ? what about if I think it should be tested for ? thats my point.
thats my point. I still have not said you were wrong anywhere. and ya you drew the line when you told me you were done with me in that PM just because I agreed with HIC about this topic. you dont want anything to do with me because of that. I never said anything hateful ever to you.
so why now ? HIC has been a super great friend to me for a long time and we see eye to eye on a lot of things so naturally we share a lot of the same opinions. and thats what they are to me , opinions. I wish there was an answer to all of our questions but right now there are not. so know one is really right or wrong the way I see it. honestly I'd rather vape small amounts of diacetyl than the other 2 but thats between me and my mind.[
lets agree to agree then because I do see your points, and times points, and vapespaces points, and lovevanilla and rocket puppy and HIC. for me its all information that allows me to make my decisions on what I vape. have a good day everyone not trying to hijack the thread.
I just posted over in the Flavoring review section a listing of all the FW flavors that they released which contain at least one of the big 3 D/A/AP
http://vapingunderground.com/threads/flavor-west-ingredient-list.39914/
it's not just that.. says milk flavor.. which one? and cream flavor, which one?
and dont forget the red wine.. but yet these are in the vaping line.. hmm.. in how many vendor shops?

Maybe because time has not made any other claim except that there are no studies. I don't know what level of acetoin is safe or harmful. I do know that sniffing my raspberries in the summer that have acetion, and many other fruits, dairy and other foodstuffs isn't going to harm my lungs. I also know sniffing lots of pure acetoin all at once would likely be harmful.
It is a false statement for anyone to claim that any amount of acetion is known to harmful. It's not true, it's hype, it's fear mongering, it's misleading and dishonest.
I agree with the rest of your post. I'm relatively new here. I don't belong to any of the cliques that appear to have formed elsewhere because I have gone back and read most every thread in the DIY section at VU and I don't see the start of any of it. The misinformation, conflicting information, and loyalties are nightmare to wade through. I had a choice. Quit coming here or try to get some direct answers. I really wanted to stay out of it and did until this thread when I found a reasonable person to discuss it with. How long I stay interested in this topic on this forum wholly depends on how this thread goes. I have no intention spending the next few months arguing with unreasonable people. I might give it a couple weeks and see how it plays out.

Well not exactly ... as pointed out by LV, there are studies that show Acetion as being harmful and with resulting symptoms almost identical to Diacetyl.
What we don't know or at least what hasn't been proven to date is the associated risk factor as it pertains to vaping.
Not trying to be argumentative, I just think that distinction is important.

There are many studies, and ones currently in progress, that are not based on injecting rats. The data on humans working in flavor manufacturing plants across the US are being scrutinized. These studies look at the big three and other compounds that pose inhalation risks. The flavor manufacturing plants are not those that solely deal with the famous popcorn flavorings, and thus far, the big three are thought to result in permanent lung damage, with further tests in progress.that study was done for injection.. not to say anything bad at all..
but this is what i have been saying all along.

Vaping is a relatively new study, and we can agree that more studies are necessary. A year ago, ECX didn't have any warnings, and with our (the vaping community's strength) protest, labeling products that contain Diacetyl are now displayed.
Whether a person believes there to be a risk or not doesn't matter, but having the knowledge to make that choice is important.
If one chooses to be cautious or not, one cannot do so without having any information.
I don't know everything, and I don't pretend to know everything. I'm not sure why trying to find out more about something became bullshit.and everyone wonders why new DIYers just lurk and PM people. It's because of the BS groups of people who think they Know it all and God forbid you disagree with them.
Vaping is new and with all the other studies done that are disproved daily, you still believe them??? Talk about dumb people. Milk is good, not bad, no good. Peanut butter is good, is bad etc.
I feel that anything I do with vaping is safer than smoking cigs. I am older and really don't fucking care what the elitists say, or those "It's not safe because a study paid for by who knows who says so".
If you want to be healthy, grow your own food, cattle, and stop buying anything from a store or better yet go to Europe.
Your all beating a dead horse to death.
back to some what lurking.
This place is as bad as ECF anymore....
I don't know everything, and I don't pretend to know everything. I'm not sure why trying to find out more about something became bullshit.
I'm not sure if you're inferring that I'm an elitist or part of some BS group, but I'm not a part of anyone's group or agenda. I want to be tactful, but this is uncalled for. I don't give a fuck about groups or cliques or sides or whatever. If someone is spouting something that I don't understand, whether it be an acquaintance or not, I will try to rationally and thoughtfully question it. Being able to question and find information is central in learning and understanding. There is so much misinformation here, and it's a disservice for new people to come here only to find erroneous information.
When I first started vaping and then DIY, I lurked for about a year before I said anything. This is a natural progression into a new undertaking.
If someone has a personal issue, can we please fucking take it out of the threads and message people instead? I know that I have asked personal questions here, and I too will refrain from doing so.
That's not what I said. I said that I personally waited a year until I was comfortable.is new people should not even think on posting for a whole year? only lurk?
That's not what I said. I said that I personally waited a year until I was comfortable.
I try to stay away from telling anyone to do anything.ok, sorry, i took that as you were telling Tick to wait a year.. i was like what?? due to the next sentence you put.. """This is a natural progression into a new undertaking"""
Hey Smokey, I'm mostly a lurker here at VU and honestly haven't lurked all that long. Just to put it out there, I'm glad you started this thread, not surprised by some of the "drama" that's happened, but hey its the internet right.ok, sorry, i took that as you were telling Tick to wait a year.. i was like what?? due to the next sentence you put.. """This is a natural progression into a new undertaking"""
as to your edited post.. umm.. i started this thread..
no i am not in every thread.. and i am not hiding behind other avatars.. I am not Tick.. Time or anyone else.
now back to the topic of my thread, please. I think maybe i need to find a lab tech.. or someone knowledgeable.. with zero ties to other flavor manufacturers.. to answer my questions.. I can wait.. and i will hunt it down, since i cant seem to either make myself become understood.. or without all this drama..
Of topic. In most contexts, a Google search makes sense. VU has a dedicated thread to Flavourart questions. Someone asked a Flavourart question, and Smoky said to google it. The thread is specifically for those types of questions.Hey Smokey, I'm mostly a lurker here at VU and honestly haven't lurked all that long.

Also, I come from an android back ground and forums like XDA, so allow me to add one small thing,
Asking someone to use a google search.. Really is a very polite thing. On some forums, having not used google search before broaching a question is grounds for having one's IP address blocked and permanent banning. Seriously, how does one get upset by being asked to do a simple search?
Anywoo, thanks for this thread, thanks for so many of your other threads, and please, continue on in this quest for truth and understanding. Some folks would argue the weather while sitting on the beach getting a tan... It's not you.
My apologies for the OT post.
I'm sure in time we will have a much better understanding of all that is occurring with the variety of chemicals and methods used while vaping. My biggest worry is that before that occurs, big tobacco and the FDA will have slammed the hammer down and we will be left with what they allow through regulation. Almost a guarantee that it won't be safe, it won't be in our best interests either. For me, I'm like you, I want to know what I'm putting in my body, and what kind if adverse effects there may be. However, that being said, I'd rather DIY a recipe with what, (at this time) we believe to be "safe" ingredients, than go back to Marlboros. Again, thanks for the thread, I'm gonna return to the corner my girl told me to sit in yesterday and continue to lurk.thanks @jamieg71 i appreciate your post..
i just want honest answers.. i want to see real lab reports.. not a graph or pretty pic or a newpaper article.. facts.
the problem is there is not a finished lab report yet..
i hope one day someone will test for what we all are wanting.. who ever that may be.. they will put a lot of people at ease..

If you're still making recipes with flavors known to have diacetyl, then why are you looking for info on which flavors have it? I guess I don't understand.thanks @jamieg71 i appreciate your post..
