Just when you thought it was safe to smoke again…
As if the gruesome health warnings on regular cigarettes weren’t bad enough, there are now warnings about your e-cigarettes.
Big cigarette companies like Altria, who make Marlboro, and MarkTen, are now putting long warnings on their e-cigs, even reminding people that smoking an e-cig is not a way to wean yourself off smoking.
