I buy my VG from Froggy's Fog. USA Made, and has been consistent for many years.

Kinda my feelings too.
Was using the Coconut based VG from RTSVapes before, but I cheaped out last time and got it from http://www.bulkapothecary.com/raw-ingredients/other-ingredients-and-chemicals/glycerin/

Don't know what it's made from tho:cry:
Would have preferred the Palm based, but nobody seems to list what it's made from.
I've had that Bulk Apothecary page bookmarked for a long time. It's a great price. I haven't ordered from them though, because VG is the only thing I'd buy, which is a waste of shipping $ since I always need flavors and stuff too. Interesting info in the description, though yeah, it never mentions what it's derived from.

"An interesting thing about glycerin is it’s history with biodiesel production. Since glycerin is a waste byproduct of biodiesel production, the market has recently been depressed. In fact, there is only one producer left in the USA for high quality glycerin production. Sensitive pharmaceuticals are the only current market for this product. - See more at: http://www.bulkapothecary.com/raw-i...-and-chemicals/glycerin/#sthash.RPpBmSCy.dpuf"

I agree, to each his own. Like religion and politics, ones patriotism is not something that I personally feel comfortable judging or commenting on, on the basis of an internet posting. Glad you were able to laugh your ass off at those manufacturers, most people would probably miss the humor in that. Flavor is in the tongue of the taster. FlavourArt and Hangsen taste perfumy and artificial to me.

My research on the subject is somewhat limited, but my understanding is that USP is a voluntary guideline. For what that is worth...

IMAO = In My Arrogant Opinion. No laughing asses involved. It's old, like me. :)

Liquid Barn lists the VG as US Palm based.
Liquid Barn's VG is Musim Mas, imported from India, same stuff as from Nicotine River. "All products bottled and shipped in the U.S.A." is not the same as Made in USA. That just means they buy tankers full from wherever, bring it here, pump it into bottles here and ship from here.

I'd love to see a link to a US Palm derived VG. If the price were lower (assuming it would be.,..domestic product and all), I'd buy my 2 gals a month form such a source. I mean, for what it's worth, since US made, palm derived VG is going to start out in Malaysia as palm oil no matter how you slice it.

About to order the 4 gallon Palm derived
http://www.essentialdepot.com/category/VG-GLYCUBE.html

They also have this 2 gallon Free shipping but does not specify the type of VG

I am aware of Essential Depot's glycubes. It is an awesome price...for Imported Palm derived VG...but $44.52 shipping kills the deal. It's a lot cheaper for me to pick up locally from Nic River, since I'm only 8 miles away from them, even though their price per gallon is higher. If I lived in Florida, I'd be buying glycubes from Essential.

But Essential's palm VG isn't made in USA. Their soy derived VG IS made in USA.

Not to concerned about imported myself, good to know about some other vendors with Palm based tho.
