You used to get a 4 pack of cigarettes with your meal served on china (actually closer to ironstone for durability) with metal cutlery.

4 packs of cigs? That’s amazing.

I'm old enough to remember when cigarettes came with C-rations (in the military). I believe they came in 5-packs. I was always a non-smoker so I would trade my cigarettes for the chocolate bar or packet of instant coffee.

During my enlistment, the C-rats turned into MREs and the cigarettes were soon no more.

I always thought smoking cigarettes always made people look "more cool." The habit never took hold with me though.
