Tobacco and Tobacco Products

For the pleasure of man... You either love 'em or hate 'em but those who love 'em, really love 'em... Here is some quotes from men who really loved 'em :

"Given the choice between a woman and a cigar, I will always choose the cigar." - Groucho Marx

"I drink a great deal. I sleep a little, and I smoke cigar after cigar. That is why I am in two-hundred-percent form." - Winston Churchill

"It's easy to quit smoking. I've done it hundreds of times." - Mark Twain

"Happiness? A good cigar, a good meal, a good cigar and a good woman - or a bad woman; it depends on how much happiness you can handle." - George Burns

"If your wife doesn't like the aroma of your cigar, change your wife." - Zino Davidoff

""If you can't send money, send tobacco." - (to the Continental Congress, 1776 ) George Washington

"[Tobacco] is the passion of honest men and he who lives without tobacco is not worthy of living." - Moliere (Jean Baptiste Poquelin)

"There's something about smoking a cigar that feels like a celebration. It's like a fine wine. There's a quality, a workmanship, a passion that goes into the smoking of a fine cigar". Demi Moore

"I smoke ten to fifteen cigars a day. At my age I have to hold on to something."

George F. Burns

Unfortunately no it is no longer manufactured by American Tobacco Co. They stopped making Bull Durham in about 1980. However Bull Durham tobacco is still sold by Commonwealth Brands Inc. But no white cloth bags.

Tobacco is the king of killers, but it usually kills the old, alcohol frequently kills the young.

Smokers have a higher rate of cancer in the mouth then non smokers.

The key ingredient in "chew" or smokeless tobacco is nocotine, just like in cigarettes. The quit-smoking patches and gums all contain nicotine so essentially you can get the same "buzz" from that. I don't know if there are pills though.

your best bet is skoal bandits they are little pouches of tobaco you cant swollow them like a pill though

To give a real answer here: no, nicotine does not come in a pill form, such as a tablet or capsule (I am not counting dermal patches or lozenges). However, it really should, but because of the negative reputation of tobacco products like cigarettes, all research into nicotine for use in, say, controlling involuntary motor tics, Huntington's disease, Tourette syndrome, obsessive compulsive disorder, and attention deficit disorder has virtually been shelved permanently. A pity, because scientific tests by pathologists have shown nicotine to be extremely effective when used in conjunction with psychotropics and neuroleptics for treating the conditions above. Like ethyl alcohol (which gets a bad rap for being the intoxicating ingredient in liquor), nicotine has been given virtual blacklist status in medical research, undeservingly so!

Yes, there is a pill form of tobacco. It is called dissolvable tobacco and is currently made by R. J. Reynolds in the form of Camel Dissolvables, Orbs, Strips and Sticks. It is also made by Phillip Morris sold as Marlboro Snus. You don't swallow the pill, but rather let it dissolve in your mouth and swallow the dissolved tobacco in your saliva. The Orbs look like candy and have a minty taste like Tic Tacs. This has generated a great deal of controversy as they appeal to teens and can be easily concealed. The health risks of the dissolvable tobacco are currently being tested as they are new products. Given that you swallow the product in your saliva, oral and digestive tract cancers similar to chewing tobacco are a likely health concern. Some Swedish studies on Snus have shown an increase in pancreatic cancer.

Eighteen is the legal age for purchasing cigarettes everywhere in the United States except Texas, where they just recently passed a law making nineteen the legal age for purchasing cigarettes.

1.It' cheaper.

2.It's healthier not to take tobacco at all, then to take and then stop (the real problems begin when you stop)

3.There is a bigger chance to start taking tobacco again if you consumed it in the past. Addiction is never totally cured.

It depends on the laws of the country you are entering.

Arizona has a law that bans smoking in all public places and employess have to step outside to "light up". GOOGLE IT :p -anonymous Arizona has a law that bans smoking in all public places and employess have to step outside to "light up". GOOGLE IT :p -anonymous

From everything I've gathered via theinternet, it all depends on brand, but there is APPROXIMATLEY 1-1.5 mg nicotine per cigarette.

Mainly by narrowing peripheral circulation which will cause high blood pressure and by covering the lungs' tissue with tar which will cause lung cancer. Tobacco also releases about 4 thousands of dangerous chemicals on every inhalation.

I heard it was 72 hours as we are preparing to take a health exam for obtaining insurance,( we received this information from our insurance agent.) The rates are three times as much for tobacco users! three times 72 hrs.? have to take swab test I believe for job but not for health insurance. might be blood test but I doubt it. work in hospital and can't be fired............wondering if I'll be labeled a liar thanks

They actually check for cicotine - a metabolite of nicotine. Cicotine can stay in the body for up to 7 days after a nicotine dose.

Continuing to smoke after surgery greatly heightens a person's risks of complications, such as infections in the surgical incision. In one study, more than half of patients who continued smoking after surgery developed complications compared to less than 20 percent who quit. Plus, fewer complications means less time in the hospital for patients who kick the habit.

In 2008, 21.1 million (18.3%) women smoked in the United States compared to 24.8 million (23.1%) men. Although fewer women smoke than men, the percentage difference between the two has continued to decrease. Today, with a much smaller gap between men's and women's smoking rates, women share a much larger burden of smoking-related diseases.

• Using hypnosis, acupuncture, or counseling using cognitive behavioral techniques.
• Using nicotine gum and patches-however, you can be addicted to the gum and patches as well
• Mental Willpower- Well, you have to really believe that your life depends on it! -- and it probably does. Then, ask for help, there is a lot out there. I was reading about this app called "Quit Genius"in the Evening Standard. It's essentially a personal psychologist in your pocket and is like the Headspace for smoking and uses scientifically proven techniques o change the way you think about smoking. It is awesome.

In many countries tobacco can not be advertised on television, the radio, or billboards. Some countries allow advertising in printed media. In most countries tobacco ads, as well as tobacco products themselves must be printed with a warning.

it will kill you! cigarrettes are much better. but i hate people who smoke anything!! i suggest u not do it! it will ruin ur life an nobody will wanna b ur friend if ur a smoker at a young age!

because all smoke is carcinogenic (causes cancer), wether its from a campfire or a cigarette, theres always a chance of dying when you inhale it, or at least that's what everyone seems to think. the thing is some tobacco companies add chemicals, anything from pesticides to potect the plants to additives to make it taste different. that plus the niccotine, which is in all cigarettes because it produces the nicotine buzz, is addictive. so smoking a cigarette or two will do about as much harm as sitting next to a campfire for a few minutes. but then after a few cigarettes the addiction begins to set in, which would grow and grow, until your inhaling huge amounts of cancer causing substances. which increases your chances of getting lung cancer.

The above answer is completely misleading. Not all smoke is carcinogenic. Marijuana smoke does not show to cause cancer. Tobacco itself is not bad, but cigarettes are bad because of the radioactive pesticides they use.

Any smoke produced from the burning of carboniferous compounds (including marijuana, gas appliances, candles, etc.) is considered carcinogenic - some based on scientific findings, some on political grounds.

Bananas, nuts, sunflower seeds and other foods high in potassium contain traces of the radioactive isotope K40, so they could be also considered as carcinogenic. It's nothing to do with science any more, I'm afraid - it's politics and vested corporate interests.

Typically urine tests are used to detect minuscule amounts of metabolites from illegal drugs, however there are tests for nicotine use. Nicotine is a drug and is no different to those that are illegal.

Nov. 2, 2012 update:

In Manitoba, Canada (prices vary province to province):

Generally, a pack of 25 cigarettes is between $12.50 and $15.00 or more depending on where you buy them, which "quality" / brand you purchase. I've paid as much as $16.50 at a gas station!

If you don't smoke, don't start. You could use the 1/4 million you'll spend on them towards a real sweet retirement. That said....

Popular brands such as Export, duMaurier, Players, Matinee, Benson Hedges are generally around the $15 & up range, while brands like Canadian, Peter Jackson and (from the other answer) Rothman's have a lower price which varies store to store but are about $12.50 and up.

Where you purchase them can make a huge difference. You'll spend the most buying at a hotel, bar or gas station convenience store (except Domo). Buying by the carton (8 packs of 25 = 200 cigs) will save you most.

Buying across the border in the US will save you quite a lot. Buying tobacco and cigarette tubes & rolling yourself will save you the most if you are a smoker in Canada.

Do not buy cigarettes from illegal sources such as First Nation Reserves unless you are entitled to.

No. Becuse even if you take smokeless tobacco on a plane then you will get in trouble because even though it's smokeless it's still not safe when on a plane.

around 5-6 dollars. dont smoke!
