How many grams of tobacco are there in 25 cigarettes?
The amount of tobacco in a cigarette can vary, but on average, a single cigarette contains about 0.7 to 1 gram of tobacco. Therefore, in 25 cigarettes, there would typically be between 17.5 to 25 grams of tobacco. This can vary based on the brand and type of cigarette.
How many cartons of cigarettes can a person have crossing the state line?
I have searched all over for this, and found the following (NY CG-15):
The cigarette use tax imposed pursuant to Tax Law section 471a must be paid by any person who uses (i.e., possesses, stores, retains, imports, etc.) cigarettes in the state, not including possession for sale, on which the cigarette tax has not been paid and where the use of the cigarettes is not exempt from Tax Law Article 20.
Exemptions:
The applicable New York State use tax, New York City use tax, or
combined state and city use taxes are imposed on cigarettes used in the
state or within the state and New York City, unless:
- the cigarette tax (imposed pursuant to Tax Law, section 471) has
been paid, as evidenced by the presence of the New York State
or New York State and New York City joint tax stamp affixed to the
package of cigarettes; or
- the cigarettes being used are specifically exempted from the
cigarette tax by Tax Law section 471 (governmental use by the
United States, New York State, and the United Nations, and use by
authorized persons purchasing from a voluntary unincorporated
organization of the armed forces of the U.S.); or
- the cigarettes being used are brought into New York State (or into
New York State and New York City) on or in the possession of the
user, and the number of cigarettes does not exceed 400 (i.e., two
cartons or less of standard packages of cigarettes).
Notes: Cigarettes shipped into New York State by mail are not brought
into the state on or in the possession of the user, and therefore do not
qualify for the last exemption.
If more than 400 cigarettes are brought into New York State (or into
New York State and New York City), then all of the cigarettes are subject
to tax(es).
Cigarettes acquired by an individual to be given as a gift to another
individual are not exempt because the law does not exempt gifts of
cigarettes.
For additional information, see TSB-M-03(1)M, Enforcement Provisions
Regarding the Sale, Shipment, and Possession of Cigarettes and
Tobacco Products in New York State.
Based on this, I am assuming that 2 cartons (400 cigarettes) are the limit to avoid issues...
How many cigarettes can you smoke per day?
Just one is enough!
I quite agree! Don't start ... if you do smoke now, quit!
I quit smoking 'cold turkey' after 39 years of puffing and smelling like a walking ashtray. One of the best decisions of my life.

What do I do to punish my five year for smoking a cigarette?
Suicide is a bit extreme.. You should smack their hand just hard enough to grab their attention and make them look at the cigarette as you repeat "No".
When were cigarette filters invented?
There have been cigarettes with filters almost as long as there have been cigarettes. In 1883 or 1884, Dr. Scott's Electric Cigarettes may have been the first. They had a recessed filter on one end, and a match head on the other. So, you could strike one end and light the cigarette. It was not called a filter, it was called a 'no nicotine mouthpiece.' In fact, this is what filter cigarettes were primarily called until the 1940s.
Until the late 1920s, filter cigarettes had to be rolled by hand, no machine had been invented to manufacture them. So, they were rare and expensive. In Britain, where more companies rolled their cigarettes by hand, filtered versions were more common, beginning c1900.
The first machine made filter was duMaurier, which went on sale in Britain in 1929. They were also sold in Canada. In the US, Parliament was offered in filtered form (no nicotine mouthpiece) beginning in 1932.
E-Cigarettes work with a small rechargeable battery and a unique, safe, replaceable cartridge containing water, vegetable glycol, nicotine, flavoring and a scent that emulates tobacco and other flavorings exclusive to . When you inhale, it activates the atomizer which releases simulated smoke that is actually water vapor.
1. You should never ever smoke because every single cigarette contain a substance called Nicotin and i probably didnt spell that Right but yeah.
2. If you smoke you can lung cancer, and youll rotten your teeth, breath, skin, lungs, and lots more.
3. Having an addiction for cigarettes is very very bad. Because every cigarette you smoke it leads you closer to the list above.
How much money is spent on cigarettes a year?
They have spent roughly $79.8 billion in 2007, down from $83.3 billion in 2006.
At least in Canada there are no truthful stats. I got in touch with the B.C. Lung Assoc., posing as a non smoker and what I heard was astounding. Their stats are rated on 'guesstimates!' Some people are successful, but smoking is difficult for most people (they say as hard as trying to come off heroine) and there is no magic pill that will help, but just when the time is right for the person to quit. Many smokers do go back to smoking (may quit again until they quit entirely) and it can be caused by stress or just wanting the nicotine back in their body. When I phoned Mother's Against Drunk Drivers they had the exact stats of extreme injuries to death re car accidents/drunk drivers and this is because they get their stats from the police. If the government or certain people want others to quit smoking they should try to understand the addiction first (get to know what you are talking about) and provide as much support as possible. By hounding someone it only makes matters worse. The government has made huge revenues off tobacco products and the price of cigarettes has gone up dramatically so something smells pretty fishy there. I fear that the Canadian and U.S. governments are leading into dictatorship telling people to quit smoking, they are obese, what to eat, (on the news recently the U.S. is clamping down hard on certain restaurants re trans fats) but my idea of this is, people are adults and can make their own choices and NO government has the right to dictate what they think and if we allow this the next thing governments will start telling us how to live, what to read, etc., if people don't get their head out from under their rocks. The next thing I'm expecting is an old German tactic of ALL citizens had to have their radios on to listen to constant Propaganda and couldn't shut off the radio although they could turn it down. Here our governments are blaming smokers for everything down to the boil on someones butt when the whole of their environment is under stress and if they would put 1/8th of the effort into the whole of the environment this would be a better world to live in. There is a way to quit smoking, trust me.

Some average smokers in the UK smoke 20 cigarettes per day x7 packs per week @ £6.00 per pack= £42.00 per week = £168.00 GBP per month.

Does the Smoke in American Spirit Cigarettes contain arsenic?
Yes, tobacco products are a well-established and major cause of various forms of cancer. Smoking and the use of other tobacco products are associated with an increased risk of developing several types of cancer, including:
Lung Cancer: Smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer. About 85% of lung cancer cases in the United States are attributed to smoking.
Oral Cancers: Tobacco use, including smoking and smokeless tobacco (such as chewing tobacco and snuff), increases the risk of cancers in the mouth, including cancers of the lips, tongue, gums, and the lining of the cheeks.
Throat and Esophageal Cancer: Smoking and tobacco use are linked to an increased risk of cancers in the throat (pharyngeal cancer) and the esophagus (esophageal cancer).
Pancreatic Cancer: Smokers have a higher risk of developing pancreatic cancer compared to non-smokers.
Bladder Cancer: Smoking is a significant risk factor for bladder cancer, and smokers are about twice as likely to develop bladder cancer as non-smokers.
Kidney Cancer: There is a link between smoking and an increased risk of kidney cancer, particularly in long-term smokers.
Cervical Cancer: Female smokers have a higher risk of developing cervical cancer. Smoking may also make treatment less effective.
Stomach Cancer: Smoking is associated with an increased risk of stomach (gastric) cancer.
Liver Cancer: There is evidence that smoking may increase the risk of liver cancer, especially in individuals with pre-existing liver conditions.
Colorectal Cancer: While the association between smoking and colorectal cancer is not as strong as with some other cancers, smoking has been linked to an increased risk of colorectal cancer.
These links between tobacco use and cancer are well-documented and supported by extensive scientific research. Tobacco smoke contains over 7,000 chemicals, including hundreds that are toxic and about 70 that are known to cause cancer. These carcinogenic substances can damage DNA and other genetic material in cells, leading to the development of cancerous growths.
Quitting smoking and avoiding all forms of tobacco is one of the most effective ways to reduce the risk of cancer and improve overall health. Additionally, early detection through regular screenings can improve the chances of successful treatment for many types of cancer. If you are a smoker or use tobacco products, seeking support to quit is a crucial step in reducing your cancer risk and improving your well-being.
