Why did the FDA ban all flavored cigarettes but not MENTHOLS?
All the different flavored cigarettes that was thought to be attracting kids is now banned but not regular cigarettes or menthols! Why didnt they just ban all of them? Why is menthols an exception? Isnt it the tobacco thats the health problem and not those flavors? Its like saying fruit and chocolate cigarettes are bad but regular and menthols are "ok". I have yet to see any kids smoking clove cigarettes but I know a lot of them like menthols!
Whats with this? Does the FDA or the Government have any brains?
