Have you noticed that your smokes taste horrible lately or that they won't stay lit? Take a look at the UPC on your pack. Do you notice the letters FSC above the UPC? That stands for Fire Safety Comission. Well, you can thank big tobacco for that. It seems as if the new FSC cigarettes are made to prevent fires, but I think they're made to snuff out for a different reason. Once a cigarette burns out it is disgusting, any smoker can tell you that. Cigarette makers want you to smoke more. It's obvious, why would they design them to burn out in 10 seconds if they don't want you to smoke more of them.
Here's what to do about the problem.
1. Stop smoking. It's bad for your health anyway. 2. Start bitching about the problem. There are a hell of a lot of smokers out there. 3. Switch brands. If the FSC cigarette makers start losing customers because of the problem they will revert back to an older formula.
I bought a carton of Marlboros two days ago and I can't smoke them because they taste horrible. It is a filthy/expensive habit, but it was my only filthy expensive habit and I truly enjoyed it. I haven't had a cigarette in 24 hours, and I'll not have another until these FSC smokes are discontinued...
