I would like some e-juice recipes! I'm currently taking Welbutrin to manage my cigarette cravings.

Microwave Recipe:
Pre-cooked Chicken (organic is best)
Boil-in-bag Rice (any kind)
Your choice of veggies
Campbell's Cream of Chicken soup

Cook rice as directed, heat chicken with veggies. Mix all cooked items together in a bowl then add the soup straight from the can, do not heat, nor add water. The heat from the food will heat the soup. This way the soup is a sauce rather than a soup. Season to taste.

I prefer to cook on my stove or in the oven myself, but I did once have an apartment that didn't have a stove. Also, cooking with a toaster oven is easier than a full-fledged oven. Try Ritz crackers toasted with sliced pepperoni and mozzarella on top for a snack!

After talking to a few clients who are vapers (if that's still the cool term kids use lol) the common ground seems to be the best diy ingredients for e-liquids they have tried is vapemate UK they have a huge range of flavours and affordable. Plus a few uses mushroom cloud which is a local nz company but the consistency of the products varies.

I had always just assumed they were vaping tobacco, like e-cigarettes have.

Just not a hipster, I guess.

One day I must look more deeply into trying vaping, if nothing else it will be considerably cheaper than my nicotine habit of pipe tobacco in roll-ups, but I'm really puzzled by the flavour thing, if I wanted cherry flavour I'd eat cherries etc. etc.

btw, yes, I used to smoke a pipe, but my workday pipe was stolen one day when I left it on a windowsill for about two minutes at a Junior school, (that's for 7-11 yrs for those not in the UK) it was admittedly in bandit country, but I wasn't expecting that. I started rolling the same baccy then and have never gone back - I still have a couple of big old Peterson pipes but they do consume vast quantities of baccy.

Well, the flavors are more prominent as scents rather than tastes. They're also better than the taste of tobacco which actually tastes worse for anyone you kiss or whomever smells your breath than it is for you. So the people around you would appreciate the change. Only reason I'm not vaping is I can't afford the juice. I have people willing to trade tobacco for food items, but no one willing to trade juice.

Its a extremely affordable solution $5-$10 NZD a week compared to $20+ for a packet of 20s

Oh the do have a very nice smell and taste good so I've heard.
Mind you a few clients stick to traditional flavours like red tobacco, menthol tobacco and rye still.

Finding the flavor that suits you is the first major obstacle to replace tobacco by vaping.
I'm using some variant of tobacco-flavor, but had to try at least 15 different ones (for free, in a specialized store) until I found one that didn't taste like a mouthful of sugar, but more or less matched the cigarette feel. It's not some organic/special blend/hipster liquid, just one I can find in enough shops not to fear running out of supplies without a chance of purchasing some locally.
I'm smoking typical filtered cigarettes, not rolled or pipe, so your mileage may vary for finding the right liquid.

The second major obstacle is finding the hardware that suits you.
You'll typically start with a low-price e-cig, with a low voltage battery and a small, disposable tank. That's good enough to know whether it suits you or not, but you'll quickly have to invest some more.
I settled for a couple of 4.8V batteries, and a small, basic (but reusable) tank. Some go way further (and more expensive), or even build/tweak/mod their own. I don't. I like to keep it compact (stick-shaped).
My TCO (total cost of ownership, so hardware with estimated lifetime plus liquid) is around 5 times less than what I spent on cigarettes, excluding what I save on lighters too :D

I'd say it's cheap enough to try, but it won't suit everyone.
