Tobacco Fact


Tobacco Fact:

Did you know that almost all of the cigarette manufacturers use "reconstituted" tobacco and nicotine?

Pushing the flaky tobacco leaves into paper cigarette tubes is a messy job, and ends up creating tobacco leaf litter all around the processing plants. The cigarette makers sweep all of this litter up, pull the chemicals from the leaves, spray them onto paper, shred the paper, and mix this in with real tobacco leaves. Gross, of course, but what isn't gross about a smoking habit?
