A More Fun Alternative To Quitting Are Electronics Cigarettes
It probably sounds crazy, but yes, there are such things as electronic cigarettes – and they’re becoming ever more popular; so much so that in another two or three years it will be crazy not to have heard of them! The Electronic Cigarette Association, a recently formed trade group to represent industry interests, estimates that there are around four hundred thousand users worldwide.
As if it didn’t sound funny enough, however, electronic cigarettes are even available in a wide variety of flavors. Yes, it’s no joke – after years of tobacco advertising touting the likes of Virginia Slims and Newport Lights for their superior “taste,” smokers can finally choose from a range of real flavors, from chocolate and cherry to coffee and banana split!
That’s right, banana split. It’s incredible but true – no longer will smokers have to stick with traditional tobacco or menthol (which are, of course, still available for purchase as well) but they now have a field of flavors even broader than that enjoyed by pipe-smokers to choose from!
No big deal? Of course, with such things as fish-flavored ice cream and soda that tastes like bacon having been invented, perhaps unusual cigarette flavors are not so surprising. But how about this: with an electronic cigarette, it’s possible to smoke without carcinogens or even nicotine for the first time in history! No, really, it’s all true: the flavored solution used by these products to produce the “smoke” (vapor) do not have to contain any nicotine whatsoever. These solutions are also available with varying amounts of the chemical, allowing users to choose the level of exposure for themselves! In fact, it is precisely on account of this ability to choose that the devices have been marketed as smoking cessation aids.
What will they think of next!
