Yeah thats what mom said. she just got back from a trip from there. she brought that pack back.

I don't mean to go on topic, but this is why I don't like those commercials that blame the tobacco companies. People have free will, even if something is chemically addictive. A cigarette is only chemically addictive for up to a day or two...after that its all your own will power.

I do like the commercials that get awarness of the dangers though...just not one blaming tobacco execs for thousands of deaths.

I like thoes comercials. they let people know the facts. I liek the "crazy world comercials and the "TRUTH" comercials. And yes it may only be addictive for 2 days, but how many peopl can smoke only one cigarett and then stop for 2 days???? Thats how the companies get you hooked.

The picture of the one that you posted is good compared to most of the warnings. There are some that show people with rotten teeth and they show pictures of messed up hearts and lungs....gross.

I read somewhere it takes 15 years to completly recover from all of the effect but some of the more noticable things happen in a few days.

the salems sold in canada are gross compared to what is in the US. they probably scrape the tobacco off the floor and reuse it in Canadian markets.

Don't even get me started on Players cigarettes :barf:

Which is why it's such a pain in the ass to smoke Canadian cigs after tasting international ones. Some of the ones here are okay though once you get used to them.

What about G-smokes or Jacks? Talk about a horrible cigarette if there ever was one.
