Well, let me tell you about this little experiment I did with Vuse Menthol pods. I’ve seen a lot of folks puffing on these things, and it got me thinking, what’s actually in them?
So, I went ahead and got myself a pack of those Vuse Alto Menthol pods. They come in these little 1.8ml containers, and you can choose between different nicotine strengths. I picked up a pack of four just to see what the fuss was all about.
Now, I know menthol is nothing new. It’s that minty stuff they put in toothpaste, gum, and even candy. It’s an organic compound, like a monoterpenoid, that comes from mint plants.
- First, I took one of those pods and started examining it. I wanted to figure out how they get that menthol flavor in there.
- Then, I did some digging around about what goes into these e-liquids. Turns out, they’re all pretty much made from the same stuff – vegetable glycerine, propylene glycol, flavorings, nicotine, and water.
- Next, I focused on the menthol part. It’s used in a lot of stuff, not just these pods. It’s a flavor additive that can be made from mint oil extracts or made in a lab.
I found out that all these e-liquids have a base of propylene glycol and vegetable glycerin. It is said that these are the ingredients in all e-liquids, but not every brand is like this.
From what I gathered, these Vuse pods use a liquid that’s heated up to make a vapor. Then you inhale that vapor. And that’s what they call “vaping.”
So, that’s the gist of my little adventure into the world of Vuse Menthol pods. It’s a mix of that minty menthol, some basic e-liquid ingredients, and nicotine if you choose. I just wanted to share what I found out. Hope it made sense!
