Various U.S. institutions of authority took the position that flavors were not for adults, but instead, a strategy to attract minors. https://www.cdc.gov/tobacco/e-cigarettes/why-youth-vape.html https://www.fda.gov/tobacco-products/ctp-newsroom/misleading... https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6663555/ https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/news/press-releases/2018/05/... https://www.drugs.com/news/study-finds-powerful…

Do you mean why vapes aren't allowed to be sold in exciting flavours in a lot of countries?

In Germany it resulted in Smirnoff Ice and some Bacardi mix drink largely going off the shelves.
