No More Flavored Blunts or Wraps For You
Last week I saw a report about flavored tobacco potentially being banned as a result of a new law passed by congress. I wasn’t sure if I was overexaggerating or being my normal paranoid self but I wasn’t. President Barack Obama signed the “Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act” into law this week and as a result, there will be no more flavored tobacco (except menthol). This includes all of your cigars that you use to twist up blunts. Smoking will never be the same.
Here is the part of the bill that mainly concerns weed smokers….
“A cigarette or any of its component parts (including the tobacco, filter, or paper) shall not contain, as a constituent (including a smoke constituent) or additive, an artificial or natural flavor (other than tobacco or menthol) or an herb or spice, including strawberry, grape, orange, clove, cinnamon, pineapple, vanilla, coconut, licorice, cocoa, chocolate, cherry, or coffee, that is a characterizing flavor of the tobacco product or tobacco smoke.”
I suppose Barack is doing a decent job. I am sure he is doing the best he can but this is crazy. First he flips the script on legalization and now he is taking away my vanilla dutches. He is definitely NOT stoner approved.
Shout outs to Spark Report for updating me on this one.

Are you SERIOUS?
The guys at the gas stations around here know me by name. NO WAY they're taking my cherry vanilla wraps away from me.
This is Bullshit!
Maybe we could do something about this but us stoners are just too damn peaceful
and lazy… :-/
Ahhh man, that is bullshit! I loved my flavored wraps. Guess I'm just gonna have to get my hands on as many as I can before this law goes into effect.
Come on Barack, I voted for you….you need to take it easy on us smokers man. Both weed and tobacco. What about taxing fast food? That stuff is a major killer. People eat that crap day in and day out, get fat and then get a bunch of diseases that could be prevented by not eating all that crap and getting lazy and not excercising. There are definitely other things that could be taxed. Enough is a enough already.
well….so far this guy has been a toss up for me as i waited to see what he would do…and um …i am at the least to say dissapointed……..ya let me down obama…..you let us all down.
soo they finally decriminalized marijuana in my state (MA) and now they are gonna take
away my fav dutches..its like a tease..here ya go smoke without going to jail again..but
were gonna take away how you smoke it..THANKS!!
