Why do e-cigarette companies put flavoring in the liquid cartridges?
Sladkaya [172]
I think they put flavoring in the liquid cartridges to make them more addictive. People are going to want the newer flavors because of the taste. Some people use them as coping skills or sometimes to be “trendy” or “cool”. E-cigarettes are very damaging to your lungs worse then regular cigarettes.
