    Default New Cigarette Packaging

    Whoa! The FDA is serious....these are going to be on each pack of
    smokes by 2012. Pretty wild packaging.

    Does anyone here on the forum smoke? Just curious why you do - if you
    do. Is the nicotine too difficult to quit? I've never smoked even one cigarette myself, and have a difficult time understanding the habit.

    quit 20 years ago after smoking for about 5 years as a teen. hardest thing I've ever done. in fact, one of the reasons i'd never take another puff is the real threat that i'm not sure i could ever stop again. insane cravings...

    I quit two years ago after 30 years of smoking. I quit the smoking by chewing nicotine gum. I quit the nicotine gum addiction by using Chantix. You are supposed to chew nicotine gum for eight weeks. I was still using it after eight months. That's how strong nicotine is. I could never smoke even one cigarette without becoming addicted again.

    Fortunately, smoking is more and more frowned upon and fewer people are smoking. I just returned from Disney World and the smoking corrals were sparsely populated.

    No, they went under about 4 years ago, maybe 5. Not a very good operation once the son took it over. Known for selling poor quality at inflated prices.
