It’s mostly the tobacco causing health issues, not the wonderfully addictive nicotine. But yeah, it’s a good thing that flavored cigarettes are banned.
Though it seems like big tobacco found a loophole on the first day, as you can still get menthol cigarettes in EU… it’s just not as strongly minted as it was prior to the ban.
I meant other chemicals in the tobacco.

And that’s the tip of the iceberg, there are chemical washes, pesticides, and other shit that’s just as bad.
And the byproducts of combustion!
The worst is I could smoke 4 full strength hand rolled cigarettes, with all the harm of tobacco, and still be craving a single boxed cigarette because the additives and poisons they mix are missing from my bagged tobacco.
