Leave it to the anti-smoking people to come up with yet another way to destroy one of life's simple pleasures. It's disgusting! :fl

Oh no! Anti (insert imagined health hazard here) people now have a new crusade. Smoking bans are now mainstream, so the vision is shifted elsewhere.

And to think, we have American soldiers dying on foreign soil to protect freedom....and this is what is happening to freedom?

I was going to say how is this any different than the infused cigars currently on the market? They may be on to something here, it would be a cheap and environmentally friendly way of making a few of the Acids.

New from Drew Estate: Scum, by Acid. Real infused tobacco from the British Isles.......


Well, at least the name fits in their lineup(Nasty, Dirt, etc...)

Wake up people, they are using the media once again to advertise break throughs so they can justify dropping the Embargo..................

I thought the article was about environmental biology at work.

Having no salt in food is outrageous. Coming from an Italian family, all food is somewhat prepared with salt, which I can say adds to the taste. People are just going to far with laws and such. Pretty soon it is going to be a country with an indirect dictatorship, where we are not allowed to do anything out of our own free will.

As for the tobacco plants, Acid now lost their secret recipe for blending cigars. Good job.

I don't see how using genetically engineered tobacco to sop up pond scum has anything to do with ending the embargo...and I read the article twice.

Adam will be boasting about how good these new cigars from jolly old England are pretty soon. LOL

Maybe Puros Indios has dibs on the whole years harvest!

To be sure i would not want to eat anything without salt, use sea salt, It's better for you. :2

Not gonna happen. Sodium is used as a preservative. No salt/sodium would result in all restaurants having to serve only fresh food; no canned, frozen or other type of foods that need to be preserved. If that bill passes, prepare to pay $100 bucks for a cheeseburger at McDonalds.
