Basically... it's tasty and more socially acceptable. Should it be? I dunno... but it just is. When we travel to see family we always stay with my sister in law who is in her mid 20's and a heavy "vaper". She sits with us in the evening in a constant cloud of vape and it honestly doesn't bother anyone ... whereas if we were sat in a cloud of cigarette smoke... well, we just wouldn't stay there at all to be honest.

I vape CBD occasionally (and take it in other ways) but that’s the extent of it so I can’t comment from personal experience about this business of vaping e.-bifta juice. Just that lots and lots of people aged 40 or younger do it, and so do older people to some extent (especially the ones looking for a replacement to actual cigarettes). Certain pubs will still direct you outside if you want to vape (even CBD). Going outside every time you want to vape is just a long thing so I like it when people recognise that vapes aren’t like really cigarettes and make more allowances for “smoking” it indoors.
