31. Eh, how about we just exercise more oversight on the pre-packaged stuff
Tobacco isn't terribly healthy for you, true, but the additives and crap that cigarettes and low-end cigars are cut with is probably a major contributor to the overall health problems.

I switched from low-end cigars to pipe tobacco, and my respiration has improved dramatically. I may even upgrade to organic pipe tobacco, if I can find it at an affordable price somewhere.

If the FDA wants to purge the additives from tobacco manufacturing, all well and good. If they want to ban tobacco, that's not so good.
