I buy juice not disposables so it’s not really marketed for kids, but congress, the FDA and the tobacco firms that seem to own both won’t really discriminate
Ahh, you’re American - the UK system, which this article is referring to, will be different. There is talk of banning disposables for environmental reasons and ease of kids getting hold of them, but the government over here are currently looking into the best options.
The government certainly won’t want to ban vapes entirely, as they help people quit smoking, so they take pressure off the health service.
Yeah. Sorry. Not sure I noticed I traipsed into the motherland.
For context, our television advertising ban happened because Philip Morris and RJ Reynolds stalemated on market share. Both had to pay for adverts because they’d lose share if they stopped, but if it’s banned they can save millions and nobody else can easily edge into their market.
Flavored cigarette bans were similar. Upstarts started eating into their profits, so it became necessary to ban their products.
Recently our FDA has started clamping down on places that mix juice. You either have to pay for some sort of certification or just buy mass produced juice.
It’s ridiculous.
