There have been many reports about the advertising practices of e cigarettes. I believe that one of the news articles that I read used the word “questionable”. This is in light to the recent letter that 40 states AG’s sent to the FDA asking them to take more action on regulating the e cigarette. It is the one thing that really shocked me. There is more attention being aimed at e cigarettes as a product even though it has not yet caused a single fatality whilst there are far worse products that are not even getting considered for regulation such as alcohol.

I get the reason why the makers of electronic cigarettes make their ads the way they do in order to make them appeal better to people. When I used to smoke filter there were many times I would fantasize about being able to smoke a cigarette that tasted like banana, or like candy but still had the nicotine to calm me down. It seems that these prayers were answered by the intro of e cigarettes brands like Green Smoke. It is not a bad thing at all; it is a great way of combining the bets of candy, fruit, and coffee; with the best of smoking i.e. the nicotine.

And guess what now we hearing that this is being done on purpose to get kids to smoke e cigarettes? That is as crazy as it sounds. There are kids that are using e cigarettes in wrong sense and it must not be commended at all. I like the FDA to speak on it as it is necessary to safe guard the rights of children. E cigarettes are meant to be used by adults and not by minors, a fact that whoever has purchased a kit online or even a disposable electronic cigarette will see with their constant reminders that this product is only for those above 18.
