| PLEASURE WARNING: Quitting smoking now significantly reduces your feelings of pleasure. |
The FDA is moving forward in limiting how we enjoy our cigarettes by proposing that menthol should be banned from cigarettes. As a person who enjoys menthol cigarettes, I am opposed to this action and ask that you help by emailing the FDA at TPSAC@fda.hhs.gov.
Below is an email I recently received from Lorillard that describes the issue in a little more detail.

Banning Menthol Cigarettes
Please do not ban Menthol cigarettes.......I have been smoking Menthol for almost 40 yrs and i will not
smoke anything else......I like the taste of Menthol cigarettes and it is my personal choice......
banning menthol cigarettes
I would like to know why ban only menthol cigarettes when both menthol and non-menthol cigarettes are hazardous for your health. I have been smoking menthol cigarettes for many of years and do not plan to quit anytime soon. I also believe there are many people that feel the same way. I am just putting my 2-cents in on this issue because banning newport(menthol) cigarettes would affect many, many, many people. Please do not ban menthol cigarettes!!!!!!
UGH
Menthols are my favorite :(
forget everything for a minute
forget personal freedom forget hazards but think of all the companys that would be recked by this. in the state of are economy could we really afford more people on unemployment. people from newport, kool, and over brands that would be shut down. you would be putting a lot of people out work for no reasons. perfectly good people would loose there jobs not just CEOs. Its sad that this is even on the table for government to discuss. Really people should have more imported things to be worried about like the civil war in libya, sate of the economy, the eduction system. please give me a break mint and tabacco get to work on the real issues and stop sticking stupid laws were they don't belong.
what ever... what do i know i'm just a non menthol camel smoking high school kid.
