A new generation of smokeless, flavored tobacco products that look like breath mints or breath-freshening strips may be life-threatening for children who mistake them for candy, according to researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Plan B: Smokeless tobacco. Start 'em young, (with candy and fruit flavors, that are now banned from cigarettes...) and have life long devoted customers... Nice business model huh.
I dont believe that it would take a lot of it. I dip and i use like 1/3 of a can and I barely get a buzz. I even chugged a 32oz bottle full of my dip spit showing off once it didnt do much. You would have to sit and eat that candy all day.
"Nicotine is a poison, and now we're seeing smokeless tobacco products that look like Tic Tacs or M&M's, which parents can leave on the counter and children can be attracted to," says Greg N. Connolly, D.M.D., the director of the Tobacco Control Research Group at the Harvard School of Public Health, in Boston, Massachusetts."
While I do smoke a pipe I do so as an adult but I do remember gum & candy cigarettes when I was a kid but these form of "tobacco" is really stupid and low
back then. Thankfully they are no more.
At times the cockroaches that are big tobacco go to far. They went to far this time for sure.
