Predicition: the rate of emphysema (or something) will increase sharply in the near future

Because of this FSC (fire safety code) additive crap. It's like smoking fiberglass
Do yourself a favor and quit before it's too late
I don't have a estimate for "near future", but I'm telling you, cigarettes have become substantially more hazardous to your health since this stuff (yeah, imagine that). If you are sensitive it shouldn't be too hard to notice. Don't ignore the warning signs. Quit NOW

It's not part of the filter. I'm pretty sure you can see it lining the cigarette...it looks kinda like glue or something. Somebody told me it was actually carpet glue but that person is not exactly a credible source. Although smoking it is not too far different. I'm telling you this stuff is BAD

Does anybody know what this shit actually is because I've heard everything from glue to just slightly thicker strips of paper.

I roll my own, and the glue tastes like the stuff used on envelopes, if it's not present in the tobacco I should be safe?
regardless, smoking is tasty tasty.

You only think you like the taste, rather, that's just your subconscious mind rationalizing your nicotine addiction to trick your conscious mind into thinking that you actually enjoy that little cancer stick.
..I'm right there with you.

I don't know what it is, but it is definitely not just thicker paper. You can taste it, and feel it (in some cases see it), it's seriously like smoking fiberglass or something, it's actually pretty horrifying that this stuff is in cigarettes...they are distinctly worse than cigarettes used to be, believe that or not.
I seem to notice it more with brands like marlboro, especially mediums and full flavor. You can really tell it's there, if you pay attention, it's not hard, and it is obviously fucking horrible for you. I've been noticing for quite some time, but now that my entire family is wheezing, and this stuff makes my throat have that wheezing feeling, and everybody I know is coughing like crazy (not due to a cold either), I refuse to smoke another cigarette.

Some kinds are harder to tell than others. Lights and cheaper cigarettes seem a little harder to tell. I don't know how to explain...but I can definitely tell, and this is no mistake (Try to notice something akin to smoking plastic). To the extent that I find it horrifying enough to quit cold turkey (although I had been cutting back recently...my throat/body is rejecting any further torture) . Maybe if you cut back your sensitivity to what's bad about it will increase
the most horrifying thing is that they (big tobacco/US/whoever) would actually do this
but this is actually very serious

Cigarettes are shit anyways. People already knew the dangers of them before that firesafe shit was added and now that they are even worse for your health people will still continue smoking.

this is the first cig i've smoked in probably over 3 months, granted this is a 'higher class' cig- pall malls, still manufactured by rj reynolds though. i don't notice anything 'plastic-y' about it, the paper taste is pretty disgusting though, hence why i only smoke cigars and pipe.

Because while you may be killing yourself faster, you are preventing fires.

I mean obviously I can't be absolutely certain the rate of emphysema will increase sharply in the near future but god damn I am SURE that they are now significantly worse for you, and that's really saying something
