fuck commercial cigs

I smoke like a pack of american spirit periques every day or two. Yesterday I ran out and someone gave me like 5 marlboro reds and some camel unfiltered. I smoked one red and almost puked. Then I woke up with a sore ass throat. Fuck those chemical cocktail sticks of death.

All cigarettes gross me out. I tried an American Spirit a while ago and I felt like I was going to die. I felt really fucked up, I had to sit very still for at least 20 minutes before I felt normal again.

i'd probably smoke american spirits if they weren't +$6.50/pack.
i did recently switch from camels to bugler pouch tobacco, and on the days after i smoke other cigarettes i do feel kinda shitty. i dont think the bugler is additive free, but i have a feeling it has a lot less additives compared to what i was smoking

I've got a tin of Top rollin' tobacco. It's "ok".. My friend just bought a tin of Drum, it's just as good maybe better. I also bought my friend Vanilla + Cherry tobacco for pipe. It shipped from Denmark. It's good stuff I think. I bought a wooden pipe to smoke this new pipe tobacco with.
Yeah i'd say that these comercial cigs are disgusting.

I'd rather quit smoking completely if I couldn't have hand-rolled American Spirits ever again.
I think the paradox lies in the fact that I can't imagine someone smoking commercial cigs all the time, while they can't imagine smoking rollies, and a non-smoker can't imagine doing either.
I'm having a weird day.

I think you folks are missing the point that whether hand rolled or not, organic or not, American Spirits are still commercial cigarettes.
Noncommercial cigarettes would be tobacco some local grew and sells to his friends.

Whatever, Mr. Semantics.
In this case, commercial is defined as non-tobacco, chemical cigarettes, cause that shit sure as fuck isn't tobacco.

Im sorry to rain on your parade but American Spirits have additives as well... check your packs... the FSC has added the same chemical to American Spirits as it has to Camels and to Reds.....

Or get tubes and pack your own. I smoke American Spirits, and they are smooth to me. When they have the FSC shit in them, it makes me sick, literally. The fire safety stuff destroys my throat. I'll keep packin my own tubes until I guess they put it into them. After that, I'll probably be smokin it out of a glass bowl. I've come to find if you get a glass pipe and only smoke tobacco out of it it's pretty decent.

I kept American Spirits in my car as my "safety pack". When I forgot my rolled ones at home, it was just as bad smoking safety pack. So now I just keep camel unfiltered or wides.
I started smoking Camels to enjoy them, not to be addicted. At least this way I can enjoy one instead of housing away at a pre-packed AS, getting a completely different fix.
On that note, I'm looking into electric cigs. If it's not too expensive I'm gonna do it. I'm tired of getting walking pneumonia and not being able to read Julian Barnes to my cats without pausing for a breath.

^^^check out this page, it has a list of the 599 FDA approved cigarette additives
gross
well in a couple of years my first crop of homegrown tobacco should be ready to smoke, and that stuff will sure as hell be additive free

its a little to harsh for me... but i have just cut down so much it doesn't really matter at all
I read somewhere that they didn't even test the chemical the FSC has been putting in them.... what do you think true or false?

I did this at a job a few years ago. I was the only one in the store and wasn't supposed to go out in the first place. Worked great in a pinch and you only really need a little bit. Was some elk-horn ceremonial type pipe that belonged to an Indian I worked with. Was a chill guy and wouldn't tell me anything about his mescaline ceremonies. I guess if you ever talk of them outside of the tribal gatherings you can be exiled.

I'm fairly certain that unless a chemical/food/dye/etc. causes immediate damage it can be distributed to the masses. Aspartame, for instance, shows no long-term effects - well, of course it doesn't, it hasn't existed long enough. But that's ok. You might get a softball sized tumor in your brain in ten years, but its alright that you don't keel over after a cup of coffee.

All of the ones Ive met who were very vocal about cacti ceremonies were the ones who were half white old hippies.
