The U. S. FDA (Food and Drug Administration) effectively banned sale of fruit, candy or clove flavored cigarettes yesterday, as a means to help curb influential sales of products that are seen as "gateway(s)" to subsequent tobacco addiction.

You can read about it here:

Next up? The Archie and Betty comics will be banned as unhealthy inducers of subsequent unsafe and inappropriate practices of amour among adolescents*.

*How's that fer fancy alliteration?

You mean I could have bought chocolate flavoured cigarettes?

Can I get coffee flavoured cigarettes? 'Cause when I quit smoking I replaced it with a caffiene addiction. But now I could quit coffee and go back to smoking.

I think you can get salmon and coffee flavored ice cream.

Yeah, Yick! ...because salmon ice cream would be so much better without the coffee flavour. :thumbsup:

Funny since legalizing weed has had the opposite effect in most places....

I didn't know you could still buy 'candy' cigs - haven't seen'em in years.

I think its a good idea. Candy cigs, even as a novelty are as bad an idea as Mr Clean's Lemonaide was.
