Flavored Tabacco

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released a new study about how young teens are all over the “little cigars.”  There are cigars flavored as chocolate, strawberry, and grape which appeal to children.  Companies that make the flavored “mini cigars” argue that they are not targeting children, even though it’s obvious they are since the flavors seem more probable to be consumed by teens.  The CDC is trying their best to make the cigars less accessible to children because not every place that sells tobacco checks for IDs.  The smokers range all the way from Middle School to High Schoolers. http://www.foxnews.com/health/2013/10/22/cdc-flavored-tobacco-products-luring-underage-smokers/
