Whats so bad about fructose in Vape?
Fructose is a sugar. Sugars melt at 320oF, caramelize at 340oF and at 410oF it begins to char and decompose. When sugar burns it can produce toxins, some of which are suspected carcinogens.
It’s probably way to early to know but, do we have an idea or a guess about harm reduction?
Cigarette smoke already contains the same sugar carcinogens, as a former pack and a half a day smoker, I am trying to figure out if I vape 15ml of a juice which is only 2.5% yellow cake, which itself is only 20-30% fructose, how does that compare to smoking cigarettes. Because that’s what is important to me, but I certainly like that I am TOLD these things and can make a decision. I just wish there was a faster way to figure all this out, lol.
@Burritoclock - Personally I wouldn’t be too worried. Your 15ml bottle would contain 0.1125ml of sugars (0.75%). Still - it’s something people should know so they can make an informed decision
lol @ FW. I’d hate to be the guy over there who was like “hey let’s put sugar in ours, it’ll taste waaaaay better”.
Hi gang, I just looked at my bottles of yellow cake and peppermint from FW (4oz) and noticed in the ingredient section that they state “no added sugars”. Strange. Anyway, just wanted to put that out there since it seems FW is being deceptive.
Maybe that’s some technicality… Like the ingredients already had sugar, but they didn’t add any.
Indeed. Companies will use semantics any time they can legally get away with it, so I wouldn’t put it past them.
Tic Tacs are labelled as zero sugar despite sugar being it’s primary ingredient because if a single serving contains less than 0.5 g of sugars it is allowable to express the amount of sugar in a serving as zero. One serving is one Tic Tac and it’s mostly sugar.
Interesting, The same logic applies to trans fat too. They can claim 0 trans fat if it’s less than 0.5g.
I was taught you can never round down to 0…but what do i know.
Looks like I am tossing out these bottles anyway since I just noticed they are passed the year mark hahaha
Such a waste having to throw out all the ones I made using some of these
I would not throw them away. Just use them until they are gone, then never buy them again if you wish. Seems like a waste.
I haven’t got any but will buy Yellow cake until @NotCharlesManson comes up with alternative for it in the SB Shortcake Bar.
I meant the FW bottles say best if used in one year from manufacture date. (pic above) And it’s been a little over a year. Or does that matter? thanks!
Usually he will weigh in when it comes to FW. I’d also like to hear his comments. I’m not a big fan of FW, but there’s few I really like. Most of what I like are on this list.
