cigarettes for kids - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Saw at the store this morning a pack of the new "cherry flavored" Winston cigarettes. Must be something new as well as part of a new trend. Cigarettes for those under 21.

I have already seen "chocolate" Marlboros ( the smoke smells like a Hershey bar I was told ), Strawberry Phillies Blunts, and peppermint Newports. Plus Camels designed for those males who are into extreme sports/ lifestyle.

And the cigarette companies STILL say they dont want kids to light up.

Cigarettes for kids? NOT a good thing to get them into. I don't think ANYONE should be smoking cigarettes...they are evil.

Thats not a very good example for kids, I tried those candy cigarette things to play a joke on my Uncle but I really do think it is a bad example. But it's the persons choice when they get older it is just basically a choice if you want to live or die to smoke because that's all it does is kill people...

I do love the candy ones that are like pure sugar but I would never do the real thing

The candy ones used to have orange coloring on the end to look like fire over here but they seemed to stop doing that.

That is a bad thing to get kids into. They shouldn't be selling that stuff to kids. Even if it is cherry flavored. I remember when I was a kid there were popeye candy ciggarettes. Both those kinds of candies are a very bad influence on kids. Even though it's candy, they shouldn't have that kind of stuff on the shelves.

I like the candy cigarettes, but I would never do the real thing! I know too many people who have died from lung cancer and smoking, all at a young age too.
