Whats better for you?
 
I know smoking is just bad for you but im having an argument about wether a standard in the box cigarette is better for you than your hand made roll up.

which is better for you health wise (i know niether is)?

It's whats in the tobacco not wether it is machine rolled or hand rolled...all natural is better,stronger but better...it is how I quit cold turkey years ago...I weaned my self unknowingly off the chemiclas in Marlboros...so when I finally got tired of stinking and smelling like an ashtray my body was already weaned off the chemiclas and only craved the tobacco...for about 2 days then the crave subsided greatly...smoke free now.

I speak from experience managing a cigar and tobacco shop here.

I've never even tried a smoke of any kind, or hang around smokers. But when I catch a beath of a nice bit of pipe tobacco, or even a good cigar, I get MAJOR cravings......

I can't figure that out.

Yeah neither are. But if you had to choose then roll your own tobbacco.

Smoking is for people with complete disregard for themselves or others. I know this may get me dodgy relationships with some people here, but its how I feel.

I don't smoke. I abhore smokeing in fact.
However I strongly disagree that is shows "complete disregard".

The language you use is far too extreeme.

I enjoy cigars a lot but have never smoked cigarettes. I'd imagine the factory-made ones probably have a lot more nasty chemicals than the home-made variety.

It is known that cigarette companies do put cemicals in to increase the addiction to cigs, but roll your own's seem to be stronger in tobacco.

I've never smoked so This is just my opion, I strongly encourage people who do to give up. I've watch one gandmother chough up her lungs due to her smoking, and my mother in laws health improve after giving up.

OT Is it possible to stand up wind of a smoker?? Despite my best sffots I have never succeeded!

I'm anti-smoking also...growing up in a home where both parents are docs, well, you see pics that you didn't want to know about.

As a former smoker, I prefer the pre-rolled ones in a box for convenience sake. However, if I had the time to make my own smokes, with filters, I would make them myself . . . but since when I smoked, I usually lacked the time . . .

As for smoking in general . . . I don't understand how smoking has become such a non-pc activity. People harp on smokers worse then they do on criminals, and those who end lives. However that is not to say that there are no health risk concerning those who smoke. As far as I am concerned, as long as one doesn't force someone to be around them when they do smoke, then they should be able to light up anywhere where there is good ventillation.

Depending on where you live, a pack of rolling papers can get you into a heap of trouble ... :yep:
