Ok, I have to admit it: I really hate cigarettes. I know a lot of other people do too, but I seriously can’t even walk by someone smoking without holding my breath. It’s nothing about the people who actually smoke the cigarettes–some of my family members smoke–it’s just the smell and smoke that I can’t stand. And then of course there’s the cancer. But what if I told you there was another option, even if you’re already addicted? Enter Freshcig Electronic cigarettes.
These electronic cigarettes offer fresh flavors like Strawberry, Chocolate and Spearmint. One thing I think is also good is that they offer some with a little bit of tobacco, which could help ween addicts off a dependency (I’m not a doctor, that’s just my opinion). These flavors don’t smell like smoke, so it’s really a great option when considering those around you!
In addition to the flavors, has a new range of pastel colored e-cigs coming soon, to add a touch of pretty. Another perk is that these e-cigarettes don’t release traditional cigarette smoke; it’s more like vapor. Freshcig is are a great alternative to all the tobacco and other additives that regular cigarettes have. In fact, that’s why the company was started.
So while I’ve never smoked an old school cigarette, I wouldn’t be so opposed to e-cigarettes. I think it’s great that we’re coming up with alternatives.
Do you smoke? How do you feel about electronic cigarettes?

weirdly enough, my younger sister does the e-cig thing. Which is weird especially because she’s like a freshman in college and like, nonono don’t smoke. She’s my little sister, and I’m VERY against smoking for a NUMBER of reasons (they’ve actually proved the existence of a THIRD-HAND smoke effect on health– as in, if you sit on a couch that has absorbed cigarette smoke chemicals, it will negatively effect your health even it the smoke in question is absent).
My sister hangs out with a lot of kids that DO smoke though, whether it’s cigarettes or hookah or whatever, and she says that part of her motivation was that it made it easier for her to turn down cigarettes and joints when they were offered. She could still hang out with her friends and feel comfortable with a ready answer when someone tried to get her to smoke.
I kind of don’t really get it, maybe because I’ve never /really/ experienced that kind of social pressure because I have a below average need to “belong” but it’s an interesting reason to pick up e-cigs given that the general idea was to help people quit tobacco.
That said though, I try to caution her about e-cigs because they’re so new that we don’t actually know what the long-term health implications are.

Wow, that’s so interesting! I think they’re definitely a MUCH safer alternative. Cigarettes are SO deadly and I cannot comprehend the social pressure to smoke. I literally would find new friends lol! Well good for her for finding something safer!!

This is really intriguing! I’ve never smoked, and I hope I don’t start, but this is an interesting concept, and I wouldn’t feel as opposed to trying these out someday. Also, a lot of my relatives smoke, so this might be some good info to pass along! xx, Elizabeth

Exactly!! I’ve never been into it, but it seems like a good alternative to those who are!

I mean. it is still bad for you? I am against smoking. It is very unhealthy and even worse for the people around you. But I would have to say if they HAD TO this would be the way to go.

I don’t think this version is bad for you (besides the ones that contain tobacco). At least that’s what I gathered from my research!
