They're better for smoking. Number 7's up here are pretty dece. Comparable to a Kool.

That said if I'm using them in a punch I'll buy a cheap ass brand like Next or some shit.

This is the same bullshit as when Harper banned that type of red food coloring and we lost Count Chocula (US gets it all year, we get it IF were lucky, at Halloween only)

Fucking Canadian Government telling me how to kill myself, damn them!

Did they ban it because they said it appeals to kids more than normal cigarettes? The US did that a few years back with clove cigarettes.

Anyone vape btw? I thought about starting. They make nicotine free juice so it wouldn't be that bad right? Seems like an enjoyable hobby to pick up.

You can still get them in North Texas pretty sure. I was in an online fling with a girl from Pampa and she had them constantly and that wasn't that long ago in the grand scheme of things.

The reason why they are banning menthol cigarettes and any form of flavour tipped cigarillo is to make it less appealing for new smokers.

I very much doubt menthol cigarettes would ever be banned in the United States. And yes, it has to do with politics. (Surprising, I know).

You guys have a bunch of lobbyists and shit fighting for your capitalist bullshit down there. We don't really have a culture of screwing over the general populace for corporations.

E-cigs are a good way to quit. That is how I did it and I am almost 3 years without smoking.
