What tobacco? The whole point of a vape is that it doesn't burn tobacco...
plenty of vapes have nicotine.
nicotine != tobacco. Tobacco contains nicotine... but a vape is a substitute for tobacco... that's the whole point of it, to get nicotine without using tobacco.
Meat contains protein. If someone uses a protein substitute you don't call it a "meat-shake".
I think I'll add that to my lexicon, like "meat-bag" and "meat popsicle".
What about "spam purse"?
That's just a purse with Spam inside.
