I smoked a lot during high school and college--I was a social smoker and did so when I drank (which was a lot back then lol). Once I grew up a bit and wasn't sitting on a porch drinking cheap beer until the sun came up , I pretty much stopped all together. Then my brother introduced me to cigars, and the rest is history. Now that I understand the quality of premium cigar tobacco, I shudder to think what's rolled up in cigarettes. It's just not the same product, and I can't stand that the laymen (and the FDA) lumps them together.


Anyway, I know how addicting they can be. My dad was an on and off again smoker for his entire life until he started vaping. Now he's content with that. My gf just quit cold turkey and is doing really well. But it took a few tries.
