I ordered a couple of small bottles of VG nicjuice from an American company but I believe the juice is coming from China since it is packaged exactly the same.
There is something about it that burns my throat a little and I doubt it's the flavor since I got coconut and watermelon. Something just a'int right with the PG from China.

Besides, my Kosher NOW brand VG is NOT as thick as the VG I get from Chinese nicjuice...why is that? How come Chinese VG is soooo thick?

I like the NOW VG as it's just thick enough to cause a good vapor but not so thick it's hard to suck through.

Which Co.
I'm still using the "butt rubbing" VG from Wally world and have no reactions to it, but I have no known allergies so i can't even tell the difference in any of the e juices except for flavor preferences. I do prefer heavy VG formulae but I think that is for the sweetness and vapor.
Send your supplier an Email and ask about their source, they will probably let you know. bikes.

Don't want to say which company because I only tried this line of VG products and they have other brands that are more expensive and probably better ~ I had to get their cheaper VG brands...

I don't think it's an allergic reaction. It's just a sort of burn that some people might even call throat hit. I dunno!

That's strange. The Vegetable Glycerin I bought from NowFoods is thick. Like brand name waffle syrup, not the generic. Not as thick as name brand Ketchup.
The VG should be way to thick to vape.
PG has about the same viscosity as the final juice, VG needs thinnin.
Both can absorb water is left open, that will thin them.

Don't know about the sore throat part. Sure it's not hot atty/burning filler?
since you are mixing quite often maybe you need to set up a drop box
a syringe to compare flow rates and standardize you mix thickness?

Wellllllllll
I like it, whatever it is. Here's the bottle.

It says Cleans, softens and moisturizes your skin...
On the back it goes on to say NOW Vegetable Glycerine has a sweet taste and has a long shelf life as it is not easily oxidized...does not test on animals, hypoallergenic, etc.
I would say it's about as thick as generic syrup, not too thick to vape straight, I guess, tho haven't tried it.
It's kinda sweetish. I haven't left it open but I do keep it in a cool dark place not in the fridge right now.

Flip it over and watch the air bubble float to the top. Blup.

Not turn a bottle of water over and watch it, Blip.

E-juice is somewhere between the two, Blap(thin juice) Blop (thick juice)

Does it actually say USP? And where it says USP does it only say Glycerin USP?

damunster

I buy that same brand (NOW) at a local grocery store (Sprouts & Sunflower) here in Phoenix. And yes it is USP. It says on the side where the UPC is "Vegetable Glycerine is a USP and food grade, all natural product derived from vegetable oil."

Rocketman

Ya'll sure it ain't got no pig squeezins in it?

Dwellsouth

Yes, USP and food grade....this is the GOOD stuff.
It's the VG FROM CHINA that is burning my throat NOT the NOW VG I use in my own mixtures.

Have you ever tried VG around 26mg nicotine from China? Do you find it ultra thick?

damunster

Yes, I have some VG 26mg from HC. I like the flavors I got from them. Red Bull, Strawberry, Blueberry, Watermelon, RY 4, 555 and my all time favorite Flue Cured.
