"Therefore, says the FDA, “In light of the clear evidence that flavored e-cigarettes attract youth to an addictive product, FDA determined that the [Tobacco Control Act’s] public-health standard would be satisfied only by robust and reliable evidence of countervailing benefits."

"But the FDA offers no evidence that it is the flavors that attract youth to vaping. The agency merely asserts that it is so, based on prevalence of use. They offer no proof that teenage vaping would cease without the existence of non-tobacco flavored products. Nor does the FDA offer “product-specific evidence” that Triton’s e-liquids currently are used by youth.

The agency merely states that 85 percent of youth begin vaping with flavored products, as though that is justification for eliminating products that millions of adults prefer. The FDA’s logic seems to be that since some teenagers use these products, they obviously cannot be marketed responsibly to adults."

"
Not counting Turning Point Brands, at least eight petitions for review have been filed so far in federal court........

"
More MDO challenges filed in 5th Circuit Court of Appeals......

    I'm not a lawyer. But, "because we said so" looks like pretty flimsy evidence to kill an entire industry.
    The 'evidence' was never there ! - But certain finanacial interests, including at least one billionaire with a comprehensive anti nicotine {from any source} agenda and money to burn, as will as possibly the pharmaceutical industry, have been particularly aiming at vaping soon as they realized how popular it had become - And how much safer it appears to be. I won't completely fault big tobacco - In my opinion they would be just as happy to make money off of vaping as lit tobacco - Of course it is not coincidence that the only product that the FDA approved is big tobacco's Reynolds Vuse !
