Anyone with experience with non-haz-mat variants at TFA? specifically Pineapple and Citrus Punch

submitted over 8 years ago by ThePunkWay

Hey all, title says it all, I was getting ready to put in a relatively (to me) substantial order which included 16 oz of Citrus Punch and 32 oz of Pineapple at TFA. The haz-mat fees were unfortunately more than the actual product cost.

I've never used TFA's Juicy Pineapple (their non-haz-mat version of Pineapple) or Citrus Punch II (their non-haz-mat Citrus Punch)

Does anyone out there have experience with these flavors? Are they substantially similar, or are they a whole other beast?

Thanks.

I use the safe TFA pineapple all the time in my mixes. I would say it compares well to their other version. It is really fucking strong though. I use anywhere from .5 to 2 percent in my mixes and it shines through like none other. It is absolutely an artificial taste in my opinion though. Not so much a candy artificial, but pretty damn close.

Awesome! I appreciate your response.

Since the original pineapple is also super strong, would you say the safe pineapple is stronger, or about the same?

About the same in my opinion, in reality, I've never had a pineapple extract that wasn't shit your pants strong.

I think you'd find better options for those flavors with a different company.

Try CAP, INW or FW for pineapple.

Try FW or FLV for a fruit punch flavor

I've tried cap's pineapple and FW's pineapple, I didn't care for either, and citrus punch isn't fruit punch, it's basically mountain dew.

Liquid Barn has a mountain dew and pineapple. I have the mountain dew but haven't tried it. I don't have pineapple. I'll try a shake and vape of it tonight and let you know if it's any good.

FW has mountain dew flavor I believe. If you want to go a little more out of the way I'd recommend Real Flavors Pineapple SC and actually FLV Pineapple has great reviews.

I've never used TFA pineapple and I won't start now.

OK, I might just bite the bullet and sub out the flavorings. What's a good source for bulk FW flavorings?

FLV Pineapple is amazing, it tastes like really good canned pineapple, almost authentic fresh pineapple.

Well you won't get better ones going for the TFA varieties. TFA Pineapple is not good

Well, I asked for people who have experience with those flavors. You apparently have no experience with that flavor, nor with the idea that people experience flavors differently.

I have used TFA Pineapple for years, with great success, so perhaps next time you have nothing useful to contribute you'll just keep your commentary to yourself.

I use TFA Pineapple quite regularly. Best god damn pineapple there is imo. Very strong and almost needs em to calm it down. 4% pineapple 2% EM(10%) is my go to.

Think of the RF version of CAP's sweet strawberry. I hate it and have made the mistake of buying it more than once :(
