What are Menthol Cigarettes? | Crushyballs

Since the early 1920s, menthol cigarettes have been a part of the smoking culture. But what are they? Why do people smoke them and why do tobacco companies manufacture them? This article will explore all of these questions.

Menthol cigarettes are cigarettes that have a minty flavour added to them. Manufacturers add flavouring to the filter, paper or tobacco.

Menthol is a minty flavour that's added to cigarettes. The flavouring can be added to the cigarette's filter, paper, or tobacco. Menthol cigarettes are popular in Canada and Australia but were first introduced in the United States in the 1950s as an alternative for people who didn't like smoking or wanted something different from other cigarette brands.

Menthol was first introduced in 1924 by the American Tobacco Company (ATC). They were sold under their Lucky Strike brand. It wasn’t until the 1950s that other popular companies began producing them.

Menthol is a flavouring agent that has been added to cigarettes since the 1920s. The main reason for adding menthol was to make them more palatable. It also makes cigarettes more addictive because it masks some of the harshnesses of smoking, leading to smoother smoke and making them easier to inhale deeply.

Menthol can also help with nicotine withdrawal symptoms such as irritability, nausea and headaches by providing relief from those symptoms without giving up on smoking altogether

The tobacco industry has long known that menthol makes it easier for users to inhale the smoke and to smoke more cigarettes. People who use menthol cigarettes may be more likely to become addicted to them.

One of the main reasons that menthol cigarettes are popular is because they make it easier to inhale smoke. Menthol also makes it easier to smoke more cigarettes, and that can lead to nicotine addiction. As a result, people who use menthol cigarettes may be more likely to become addicted than those who don't use this type of cigarette.

Despite these findings, tobacco companies continue to sell menthol cigarettes and other flavoured tobacco products in Canada, including Mint Crushballs — a type of cigarette manufactured by Imperial Tobacco Canada since 1964.4

Menthol cigarettes pose a significant health risk to smokers and non-smokers alike. Menthol can mask the smell of smoke on clothing and skin, making it easier for people around you to breathe in secondhand smoke without realizing it. Secondhand smoke harms everyone's health because it contains thousands of chemicals found in both regular cigarettes and menthol ones. For example:

• Inhaling secondhand smoke can cause lung cancer — either right away or later in life (for those exposed as children). 5,6

• It also causes heart disease immediately after exposure 7(and even before long-term exposure). 8

• It harms your immune system 9 and makes you susceptible to infections such as colds or flu viruses.* 10 You're more likely than non-smokers

Smoking any type of cigarette is bad for you.

Smoking any type of cigarette is bad for you. Not only are cigarettes highly addictive, but they’re also not healthy and can have negative side effects on your body. Menthol cigarettes are no exception to this rule, so if you want to quit smoking or just be healthier overall, it’s best to quit cold turkey.

Menthol cigarettes come in a variety of brands, including Kool and Newport. The chemicals used in mentholated cigarettes typically provide a cooling sensation when inhaled from the lungs which makes smoking them feel more enjoyable than non-mentholated brands because it masks some of the harshnesses that come along with smoking tobacco.

Conclusion

Overall, the research shows that menthol cigarettes are no safer than non-menthol cigarettes. The tobacco industry has long known that menthol makes it easier for consumers to inhale smoke and smoke more cigarettes. People who use menthol cigarettes may be more likely to become addicted to them. Despite these findings, tobacco companies continue to sell menthol cigarettes and other flavoured tobacco products in Canada, including Mint Crushballs — a type of cigarette manufactured by Imperial Tobacco Canada since 1964.
