####Q: How do flavors get put on the schedule?
####A: Requests and suggestions from people like YOU!
If there's something you'd like to see, just post a request in this thread. You can request both a specific flavor profile and where it lands on the calendar.
I somehow have 19 of these flavors: TFA Brown Sugar Extra, TFA DX Brown Sugar, VSO Brown Sugar, OoO Brown Sugar, OoO Powered Sugar, OoO Burnt Sugar, NF Burnt Sugar, NF Brown Sugar, TP Brown Sugar, FW Brown Sugar, FF Brown Sugar, Chef's Super Concentrates Brown Sugar, Bickford Burnt Sugar, VT Raw Sugar, VT Sugar Cane, CAP Cinnamon Sugar, FLV Sugar Orchid, HS Rock Sugar, and SSA Vanilla Sugar. Gonna give myself diabetes of the lungs sampling all this stuff.
If you get diabetes you instantly grow a Wilford Brimley moustache...
OMG I'm fucking dying! Cocoon is one of the best films of the century - prove me wrong!
Funny shit - a long time ago right as the dibeetus thing was becoming a meme, I had a kid in my store with the hip pack and I asked him about it, then I verbally said Dibeetus and he fell over laughing. Kid was MAYBE 13 but knew who tf Wilford Brimley was!
Good shit man. Whoever made that video has the patience of a monument and the taste of the Dos Equis guy.
This is great I've been waiting for some reviews of sugar cane and raw sugar. Do you think they'll go well with WF Hawaiian Punch? Pixie Sticks does.
No, I don’t think either of them would. There’s a brown sugar quality to both of them and I think with Hawaiian Punch you probably want your sugar as white as wearing khaki shorts, a salmon-colored polo shirt, and boat shoes with no socks while eating a mayonnaise sandwich.
What monster requested this?
I should really start keeping track of that and holding these degenerates accountable
Gulp... (shamefully raises his hand)
We all love sugar!
You're too late, it's already been done . . . . and doesn't need to be done again.
Pour some sugar on me
Looking at the FOTW Schedule, I see something missing - STRAWBERRIES! It's one of the largest groups of flavors in the DIY universe - second only to Tobacco. Just like Tobacco and FOTQ - I think Strawberries should have their own recurring spot on FOTW.
Here's a few of the Strawberry Sub-Groups I think could make for a good FOTW . . .
- Strawberry & Cream
- Strawberry Milk/Milkshake
- Strawberry & Kiwi
- Strawberry & Banana
- Strawberry & Fruits not named Kiwi or Banana
- Strawberry Candy
- Strawberry Jam/Preserves
- Strawberry Lemonade
- Strawberry Bakery (Shortcake, Biscuit, Pastry)
- Strawberry Dessert (Custard, Cheesecake)
- Strawberry & Chocolate
That leaves about 100 flavors with simple names like "Strawberry". The only way I see to divide those is with generic adjectives in the name like Sweet, Fresh, or Juicy.
Strawberry Lemonade is already on the schedule and so is Kiwi (to included strawberry kiwi) and fruity custard (to include strawberry custard). I'll work on adding Strawberry & Cream/Milk, Strawberry Banana, Strawberry Candy, Strawberry Jam, Strawberry Bakery (to include cheesecake), Strawberry Chocolate, Strawberry + various adjectives, and just plain ol Strawberry tonight.
> so is Kiwi (to included strawberry kiwi)
I'm not sure how many possible flavors you want for any given week. But have you noticed how popular Strawberry-Kiwi is in the vape world?

CAP Kiwi Strawberry (Stevia)

HS Kiwi Apple Strawberry

I have 0 sugar flavors, are they used a lot to sweeten tobacco mixes? I caught a little bit of the show last night and think that may have been mentioned.
The brown ones are great for that. I've never tried it with any others, don't think I would try it with Powdered Sugar. Never tried any burnt sugars at all and honestly, I'm a little scared.
If a flavor says "xyz- with stevia ” does that flavor actually taste like stevia? Sounds a bit gross lol
So noob question. I made two mixes added sweetener to one. Same flavor mix why does it feel like you can taste the one with sweetener on your tongue but the one with out has a cleaner mouth feel if that makes sense
Why? I don't know the physics of why. I can tell you that's 100% perfectly normal, though.
TFA Brown Sugar and OOO Powdered Sugar are the ones I use the most. Powdered sugar is more of a texture flavoring for me. FLV Caramel should get an honorable mention as a great brown sugar
You won the flavors. Congratulations! PM me for details on the Bull City Flavors. You'll need to get in touch with /u/TeslaDelMar about the free R7 one-shot.
I'm somehow incredibly inexperienced in this FOTW! OOO Powdered Sugar is a great powdered sugar, but gives an actual powdered sugar vibe which can be inappropriate in certain recipes. TFA Brown Sugar is one of my favorite ways to sweeten a simple tobacco recipe. CAP Cinnamon Sugar is nice, but cinnamon seriously irritates me so I avoid.
going to look into VT brown sugar + VT sugar cane. also looking forward to the recipes you guys choose for this show!
As always, I’m looking forward to the show. I recently picked up SSA Vanilla sugar also. I haven’t used it yet in a mix. When I first tested, to me it tasted just like the white Necco candy. Powederiness and all. So far I have enjoyed all of the SSA flavors I’ve tried.
Why hasn't anyone mentioned FLV Caramel? That one is totally Brown sugar!? 100% no caramel at all!
I have literally relabeled my FLV Caramel to read "BROWN SUGAH"
That's excellent! It is a really good flavor. I can't imagine using TFA for brown sugar ever again! Hey, have you tried the VSO flavors? I just found their website...I'm going to go broke!
Looking forward to your thoughts on ooo powdered sugar!
I'd like to request spiky fruits - like jackfruit and durian. Or more obscure tropical fruits.
Added Jackfruit, thank you, that's a great idea
Haha that's great! Sad that durian doesn't make it but then it takes a brave soul to try. Still thinking about the savory episode with the chicken grease :o
I would really love to a recipe that actually tastes like the candy Lemonhead's!
I have been searching for a while and can't find one that tastes like Lemonhead candy let alone that tastes good!
Please do this flavor and you got to use a sugary additive to it!
