    Right now it's a big Hype in US .. I give that Cotton a try and just ordered 1 pack from a Thai Vendor .. :very good:

    Description :
    No boiling necessary, just pinch, rip, wick, and vape!

    This is the slogan of this new style of cotton thats being marketed as the cleanest cotton you can buy. I have been hearing a lot about this and this merchant has it at a price thats right for any vaper that uses cotton or wants to try cotton.

    Its called "Cotton Bacon" because it comes in strips - making it much easier to form a wick.

    I am still happy with my Watson unbleached cotton, readily available and cheap.

    I got a bag of cotton from 7/11...boiled it twice and then let it dry in the sun for a day, I call it 7/11 cotton and it will last me a year for 20 some baht

    That's what I was using before finding the unbleached Watson one, it is indeed more than 20thb (i got mine for 160thb for 2 boxes) but a box can last you for a year also and you don't have to boil it ....

    Also boiling might not remove the chemicals contained in the cotton, just my 2 satangs.

    The first cotton I tried from Tesco was awful, two hits and then a nice dry one. The stuff from Watson's (white & brown box 80B) was fine I thought, only reason I'm not using it is because I bought some Japanese and some Rayon but when they run out I think I will be happy to use the Watson's again...

    The chemicals usually used on generic cotton balls is either bleach or more likely hydrogen peroxide because it's cheaper and safer... the levels used to make cotton white are generally low and boiling twice should remove much if not all of it. I've never had any problems or bad taste, then again hydrogen peroxide is tasteless and odorless.

    I was using 7/11 as well but then I was put on to the Watsons organic as well. Not much difference for me either way in taste etc. BUT… It is capable of holding a LOT more juice than the 7/11 cotton.

    My next trip out I'll pick up some of the Watson's cotton and give it a try...hell, 2 years worth of cotton has to be better than 1
