That's different though. It has to do with a regulatory snafu over what the definition of vape juice is in regards to being a tobacco product.

If they ban menthol cigarettes, they will be off the shelf the same day.

True. But let's see the average smoker or even 5% outlier mentholate their own tobacco.

There's actually some evidence that menthol smokers have lower rates of lung cancer than regular smokers. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3096798/

All smoking carries a risk, but I personally believe that it is not the smoking per se but all the chemicals sprayed on the tobacco during growing and processing. No doubt in time we'll learn that the chemicals in vape are more dangerous than cigs. I also disagree that young people are attracted to the menthol in cigarettes.

If they're so worried about cancer, why don't they ban glyphosate and other chemicals in processed foods? If it's the health risk, what about sugar and junk foods leading to obesity and diabetes? This ban makes no sense.

Sure got that right - If, ten years ago, you told me that we'd see the crazy we're seeing now, I wouldn't have believed you. It's reached the point where I can't tell the difference between an MSM headline and a Babylon Bee headline :-0

Ha, it is true!

The line between real and satire is nearly impossible to distinguish.
