Lots of vanilla flavoring comes from animal anal glands

I hope this is one of the things my memory doesn’t hold onto for long.

You'd be shocked to find out how restaurants make their food.

Not in the least... I spent years in the restaurant industry. Working in the kitchens, mainly.

I think the FDA only regulates vape liquids if it contains nicotine.

I agree vaping if safer than cigs. Only carcinogens being flavoring and nicotine, but no one mentioned the type of vaping that is done. SUB OHM VAPING. Lowwwwww resistance coils and the intense heat they produce that most vapers take LARGE hits off of to blow big (gay) clouds. That has to be bad for your lungs. I stopped vaping a year ago, my lungs have hurt on and off for a while. Only recently getting better. (No cigs in almost 10 years. Only vaped for one year)

I wonder if the heat can scar or damage lungs?

But you have no idea within this snapshot that one instance equals another outside of one anecdote.

Whereas there are others have seen a difference to the positive.... if we are talking pure economics.

I said, and I'll repeat that I am not offering judgement, just proffering a real world scenario and not an internet link.
I don't give a crap what you do to stay high or drunk. I'm just stating a real world scenerio of those that are trying to run a business in a world of legal dispensaries in small town of 1500. You can take the information any way you want to read it. I'm just reporting the facts in this location. Your location may vary.

I don't know if ya'll realize it, but the oils being sold for the vape/e-cig stuff are generally mixed up by some dude in the back room or a garage somewhere. There is no quality control, no nothing, really. Not that inhaling stuff from Big Tobacco into your lungs is safe or healthy, but most people don't know jack schitt about what they're vaping, either.

Isn't that the truth.

You have to provide a link to prove that.
I'll start.
Where Does Vanilla Come From?
Vanilla originated in Mexico with the Totonaco Indians, who were conquered by the Aztecs who, in turn, were conquered by Hernando Cortez. Along with other plunder, Cortez took cacao beans and vanilla pods back to Spain and the rest is history.


Vanilla pods, commonly called vanilla beans, are the fruit of the vanilla orchid, the only orchid plant that produces an edible fruit. Because of its shape, and because the Melipone bee, historically responsible for the pollination of the orchid, is found only in Mexico, the orchid needs assistance in order to produce fruit.


"Cortez took the beans back to Spain but he forgot to take the bees," Craig Nielsen says.


At last, Montezuma has his revenge!




Today, the orchids are grown in Mexico, the Bourbon Islands, Tahiti, Indonesia, India, Uganda, and Papua New Guinea. They are hand pollinated, hand harvested and hand cured by farmers in a process that takes anywhere from 13 to 14 weeks.


No wonder vanilla is so expensive!
