The FDA is trying to ban menthol cigarettes and Flavored Cigars - Connected - Apr 29, 2021
So I was just browsing the web and found this article. https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/historic-life-saving-step-fda-moves-ban-menthol-cigarettes-flavored-n1265823?fbclid=IwAR220ztnIx3tcADvFjnBArZ_h92s93_jjCpW5tfMCq_KRAz7Islxc3rmiyQ
I was curious about what you guys opinion on the matter was.

i think its stupid. something similar to this happend in canada recently banning all flavored cigars, such a shame as they attempt to make it seem like its marketed for kids.

They did this up north in MA when I lived there. Stupid idea all it does is take money from the state.

Same thing happen in the EU a while ago, they stopped selling any flavored cigarettes.
Guess you have to vape now if you want any flavors.

Our governments need a reality check

I'm still pissed at them for pressuring juul into taking all the juul pod flavors that don't taste like shitty tobacco off the market :( I miss the simple days of just having a little stick instead of a bigass vape.

ofc they have a reason, unless you don't care about getting cancer or some serious deadly illness

Because non-menthol cigarettes are so healthy... well said kid.
@OP;
Here the same. Menthol cigarettes are banned, but flavoured cigars are still available.
Weird world, but I guess they'll make everyone rather sick than an instant death (big Pharma mafia).

Good to know that you post sarcastic replies (in case you want to get cancer) without knowing that the "menthol" in it isn't the only component that is causing cancer.
If you want to act superior or patronising, at least use some facts. Weird ass kid.

Same thing happened here in EU. When it comes to cigarettes with flavours, it has been found that you tend to draw in more smoke than usual so that you are putting in more smoke with more tar and carcinogens to your lungs. That's why flavoured cigarettes are more dangerous than the regular ones, which may also increase possibilities of health crisis. It's also common that menthol cigs can lead to sperm issues and might cause impotence...

And especially the flavoured cigars that are still at the market?
I find it weird that they ban the menthol (too much risk) but keep the lower-but-still-deathly-risks on the table. How do you feel about the flavoured cigars, such as CAO and many other brands.

All cigarettes should be banned. Simple as that.
