Palm based VG?

[bigbluenose]

Anyone know where I can source palm based VG liquid?

As I understand it a large proportion of vg is palm based however you are unlikely to find any manufacturer owning up to this due to the way palm products are manufactured, rainforest deforestation, orphaned orangutans etc. Most manufacturers try to distance themselves from this for obvious reasons. On the other hand it's quite easy to find palm-free vg, if you're enquiring from a safe to vape point of view then any pharma grade vg should be safe.

Lubrisolve are quite proud that their VG is not from Palm sources. It was one of the factors in me buying from them. Got to look after the Orangutans...

Purely out of interest why do you want palm based VG specifically?

I'm with Bob and Dome in that I stay away from Palm products full stop. I don't agree with the implications of the way it's harvested at all.

To be perfectly honest I was totally ignorant as to the problems surrounding the palm?
The reason I was wanting to try it was that I heard it is favoured by some of the ejuice manufacturers because of the unique sweetness of the VG.
I was wanting to try this myself but given the unethical practices behind this I will give it a miss.
Thanks for highlighting guys.
