There is evidence that the tobacco shaming didn't improve health, but simply resulted in less appetite suppression.

The important thing is to make it appear that Joe Biden is a man of action.
If he trips on some stairs, it can be blamed on something other than his own stupidity.
Having steak and eggs in a little bit. Screw the government and donkey that rode it here.

Unlike Canabis, Nicotine is actually harmless. Addictive, but harmless. All the harmful effect of smoking are due to the tar in cigarettes. The efforts to reduce smoking should be done understanding this fact. Believe in Science!
The same people who are trying to ban Nicotine are fighting to legalize marihuana and even the hard drugs. ???
Broccoli is what my breakfast would eat if given a chance.
Never smoker that understands the horrors and disease of lung cancers, and the traps of addiction, but regulatory bodies are meant to guide, not rule.
We don’t need a Broccoli King. And as long as Cheetos and Doritos have market share, cigarettes should be left alone. Label the feck out the them, but don’t be tampering with the product.
Next thing is we’ll all be getting SlimFast for breakfast.
Smoking cigarettes has largely become a habit of lower income people. Thus it is easy for Federal and state governments to tax and regulate them as these voters are basically powerless.
I could eat steamed Broccoli with butter and lemon with every meal but I’ll pass on eating raw.
Yeah, I don’t mind broccoli in a quiche. But there had better be sausage or bacon in it.
I recently started making avocado toast at home after unexpectedly receiving several avocados in our Imperfect Foods delivery. It’s good!
I also like broccoli — been enjoying it for decades, usually steamed, with butter or in a stir-fry. And I like the center of the stems eaten raw after removing the tough outer layer.
And, of course, I love a huge variety of other foods, too, including just about everything the the nanny state says is bad for me.
F*** ‘em...
This is total idiocy. Instead of smoking 1 cigarette you will smoke 2 cigarettes to get the same amount of nicotine. Nicotine does not cause cancer but it is addictive. The tars in the cigarette is what causes the cancer.
Two cigarettes has twice the tars of one. Cancer rates will go up!
Maybe the real plan is that people will smoke twice as much....more tax revenue. These people stay awake nights thinking of new ways to get our money.
Yuck, but I fully support your right to make that choice. BTW, what do you mean, "if given a chance"? What's keeping you from eating broccoli for breakfast?
Ain’t that the truth!
Not raw and in a cheesy quiche and we can talk.
And the number of my gout attacks jumps through the roof.
I’m Hypothyroid, this along with Grapefruit, and Soy are forbidden items. Screws up my med. Nor can I digest it.
