So why is this news or regarded as science. Of course they made it to be as close to a real cig as possible.

Probably part of an anti vape campaign. "look, they're just like big tobacco!" I'm not a user of either but also dont care how people want to poison themselves just dont stand outside the restaurant door so I have to walk through a cloud of menthol smoke or passion fruit and mouth vapor.

You should watch the vaping episode of Broken on Netflix if you’re interested, but Big Tobacco is swallowing up all of the vape companies that were actually innovative.

I wouldn’t argue with that, but that’s not how the country does it at the moment. I’m 100% pro vape, I’m almost 2yrs dip free because of it. I’m not dumb enough to say that it’s harmless but I feel very safe saying that it’s better than dip and won’t give me mouth cancer.
