I've tried it and done it, but it just never blew my skirt up. I stick with a pack of "Backwoods" when camping to keep the bugs away but that's about it.

Isn't tobbaco industry great? They sell pressed tobbaco leaves that emit poisonous smoke when burned. And cost a lot. And market it so people convict themselves and others that inhaling this particular smoke is somehow pleasant and that doing so makes you "a man of taste". While poisoning themselves. Amazing :D

Actually beepbeep any negative studies about tobacco use you find will be related to cigarettes with all of their additives to keep them burning, some data on chewing tobacco and pipe smoking related to cheek and tongue cancer.

Most people do not inhale cigars, and the nicotine enters the body at a slower rate than any other tobacco product making it less additive.

The last studies on the topic of cigars from the early 1970's indicated the mortality rate of cigar smokers (up to five cigars a day) was the same as the general population.

Tobacco growing for cigars is typically a family based business based on pride of product and tradition, and not corporate driven to maximize profits. This means no chemicals or or mild chemicals early in the plants growth stage are used, although not organically certified as far as I know.

Tobacco beetles can be found in cigars but not other Tobacco products, that should tell you something about how unprocessed and close to the Earth they are.

It's not the really the tobacco that's bad for you as much as what manufacturers of processed goods will put into them. Cigars are made, not manufactured, that should be our first clue.

I bought a few in Vancouver, BC, but the Canadians tax the crap out of tobacco.
