U.S. report: More nicotine in cigarettes
Comments

Quitting, for the most part, is mental anyways. There's a period of withdrawal from nicotine, but it's not like you need methadone to get through it. I smoke, but I go weeks and months at a time without a cigaratte sometimes. The habit is what's hard to break, not really the physical "addiction".0

What type of smokes?
I just checked a pack and the carton and there is nothing like that.
On the carton it does have the ingredients:
Blended tobacco, water, high fructose corn syrup, glycerol, propylene glycol, sugars, casing flavor, natural and artifical flavors.0 -

Players, Craven A, du Maurier, etc. They all have the tar and nic on them. Along with a super pic of something or other to try and make you not smoke.
Edit: It may be that these are Cdn smokes???????? And our regulations???????You've changed your place in this world!0 -

Yeah, must be. Not a bad regulation to have though. Nothing wrong with giving the consumer a little more info.0 -

I thought they did that in the US as well. Maybe it is just on cigarette advertising though. I think if you see an add in a magazine, it will show the tar, nicotine, etc.I cannot come up with a new sig till I get this egg off my face.0 -
US cigarette companies are really, really, REALLY, unspeakably evil.
I'll never put one of those things in my mouth. Never.
I smoke Djarums from Indonesia. They aren't made by an evil comany, and if they were, they'd be to poor to put billions into being so evil.
Also they're clove ^_^
Seriously, how can a company that still uses ARSENIC as a preservative not be one of the most evil on the planet?
(edit)
BTW there is an ENORMOUS amount of chemicals in Us cigarettes.. it's probably filed under "tobacco" on those ingredients.
They have one that swells the tobacco to twice it's size and is listed by groups/people like the surgeon general (i believe that's who made a certain chart i looked at awhile ago) as a health hazard. The chemical started with "H" i believe.
Evil, evil evil evil evil...Come on pilgrim you know he loves you..
