Holy crap! What's next? Intravenous Tobacco?

Seems like FDA really don't know the true potential of an e-cig (or at least not wanting to...)

Well, I'm not going into conspiracy theory, but something smells fishy indeed...

I know. And they are going to be selling it next to the gum and candy where kids can steal it? That does not make any sense at all?
This should be the FDA's main concern right there and approve electronic cigarettes!

Delite, that was my thought exactly. The video shows the nicotine product next to some breath mints, instead of behind the counter!

Obviously they wont be sold next to the candy. I do wish they would stop using the "you're marketing to children" tactic.

This is the same kind of crap people are doing to the e-cig. Like their going to put this product or "candy flavored" e-juice right next to the candy or gum. Give me a freaking break.

I believe ORBS are the worst idea ever. Easy to OD on, easy for "small" children to mistake for candy. While they are not marketed to kids, I think teenagers would be all over them

Isn't the biggest danger of nicotine addiction connected to the burning tobacco associated with cigarettes?? There are tons of studies available showing that nicotine is relatively safe if taken in NRT products like gums, patches, etc. These "candies" don't seem any more harmful than nicotine gum. It seems like another case of anti tobacco zealots who can't separate nicotine from cigarettes. They are so locked into thier anti smoking rhetoric and fear tactics, that when a safer alternative comes along, they have to dis that, too.

I doubt any store would place these next to the tic tacs like we see in this video, that's clearly to add shock value to the story.
