There’s a new teen trend and this one just may have you blowing smoke out of your ears. The good news is that the overall number of teens who smoke cigarettes has declined significantly during the past ten years.(16)The bad news is that new statistics found that cigar use among teens increased by more than 11% in the past decade. And the cigars are not the ones that your uncles smoked. The cigars of choice are candy-flavored. Selling tobacco products to minors remains illegal, but in typical teen fashion, teens are able to find adults to purchase these cigars for them and not all stores check IDs. The cigars are available in tempting flavors including chocolate, mango, strawberry and peach. The flavors are no doubt intended to conceal the taste of the tobacco. Also,(17)the cigars are sold individually for an amount that any teen allowance can handle, which is less than one dollar.(18)The saddest part of this situation is that teens are often unaware of the health risks associated with cigars. It certainly appears to be time to educate them that cigars may have more tobacco than cigarettes and may put them at risk for the same dreadful illnesses including cancer. Apparently, attempts at the state and local level have been unsuccessful.(19)And the FDA has banned the sale of flavored cigarettes nationally but not flavored cigars. As expected, the cigar association has remained in silence on this issue.
16. What can we learn about teens’ smoking?
17. What can we learn about the flavored cigar?
18. What is the saddest part of teenagers’ smoking cigar?
19. What can we know about the efforts to solve this problem?
