Rational scale to assess the harm of drugs
 

I found it iteresting to see where tobacco falls, click the image for the always true wiki info (<---Sarcasm).
My opinion is tobacco is only a drug if abused (Same with alchohol), I do not consider cigars a tobacco abuse.
I am sure these results where based on cigarette tobacco, another example of how cigars get a bad image.

If I recall correctly, it's a plant where people chew the leaves. Kind of like tobacco, but the leaves are chewed fresh.
