Well, let me tell you, these newfangled vape things, they got all sorts of flavors now. You wouldn’t believe it. Back in my day, we just had plain old tobacco. Now they got fruity, candy, and even this “ice” stuff. And people ask, “are ice vapes menthol?” It’s a whole thing.
This “ice” they talk about, it ain’t like the ice we get from the freezer. No sir. It’s something they put in the vape juice, I reckon. Makes it cool when you breathe it in. Some folks like that, say it feels good on their throat. Some people like it because they say it is like those menthol cigarettes.

Now, this menthol, that’s something else. That’s like mint, you know? Like them mint candies your grandma used to have. It’s cool too, but it got that minty taste. So, ice ain’t menthol, but they both make the vape cool. One is with mint and the other is not. I think that both are cool, but one is with mint and the other is not. I heard that one is with mint, and the other is not.
I heard some young folks talkin’ the other day. They said the ice vapes, they just cool you down. No extra taste, just cool. Like a cold breeze, I guess. But the menthol ones, they got that minty kick. Some people like that minty taste, some don’t. They say it is cool too but minty. Some like it, some don’t. I don’t know why it is so hard to understand, one is minty, the other is not.
- Ice Vape: Cool, no mint taste.
- Menthol Vape: Cool, with mint taste.
- Both are cool, but not the same.
They got all these flavors now, it’s a mess. Strawberry, berries, even this “blackberry ice” thing. What in the world is that? I don’t even know. Back in my day, we just had plain old tobacco flavor. Simple. These kids today, they want all these fancy flavors. They say strawberry is good and some say that berries are good too. Some people like blackberry, too. But I only know tobacco.
They say these vape things are better than cigarettes. Maybe, maybe not. I don’t know nothin’ about that. But I do know this ice and menthol business is confusing. Just pick one you like, I guess. They say it is better than cigarettes, and I say maybe. I don’t know. I don’t know a lot about vapes. Only that they are like cigarettes, but not cigarettes. And that they are maybe better. But maybe not.
If you want that cool feeling, try the ice one. If you like mint, try the menthol. I think that people like cool things. And menthol is cool. And ice is cool. But one is with mint, and the other is not. It ain’t rocket science, folks. It’s just vape juice. One is with mint, and the other is not. Why is that so hard to understand? One is with mint, and the other is not.
But these young people, they make everything complicated. They talk about “cooling agents” and “e-liquids”. What’s wrong with just saying “vape juice”? And why so many flavors? It’s just like that candy aisle at the store. Too many choices! Makes my head spin.
I remember when a smoke was just a smoke. Now it’s a whole production. You got your vape pens, your vape mods, your vape juice. And all these flavors. Ice, menthol, fruit, candy. It’s a lot to keep up with. All I know is that people like ice and menthol because it is cool. And one is minty and the other is not.
So, if you’re thinking about trying these vape things, just remember what I said. Ice is cool, menthol is minty. It is not very hard to remember. Ice is just cool, and menthol is cool and minty. I don’t know why it is hard. Pick the one you like. If you don’t like it, pick the other one. It is easy. Don’t make it harder than it is. It is easy. Just pick one.

And don’t get me started on all the other flavors. Strawberry, berry, blackberry ice…It’s too much. Just stick with the basics, I say. Ice or menthol. Cool or minty. That’s all you need to know. Ice or menthol, cool or minty. One or the other, choose. And don’t think too much. And they are both cool.
