Actually it's all in a grey area. The e cigarettes can't be sold as a smoking cessation device. Years of testing and specific labelling would be required first. That is up here in Canada. I have no ideas what the laws are in the USA or other parts of the world.

It's interesting to note that "testing has demonstrated that products labelled as nicotine-free often contain nicotine" and "e-cigarette companies, many of which are now owned by major tobacco companies, are using every trick in the tobacco industry’s marketing playbook. For the first time in 40 years, ads showing sexy young men and women “smoking” are back on television."

So get them hooked on the nicotine and then start selling them the "real" thing?
