FDA urged to pull menthol cigarettes

An FDA advisory committee claimed Friday that the availability of menthold cigarettes was causing a rise in the number of children and African American smokers.

Menthol cigarettes were not found to have a worse health impact that regular cigarettes. However, it was generally agreed that their “awesomeness” was stealing the souls of children and minorities.

The general concensus of health nuts was that cigarette companies should not be permitted to have a product that tastes good.
