They better not ban any black and milds. They're tasty and smell great.

so, pretty much if they call it a cigarette on the label and it contains tobacco, it is a cigarette? that's logical

^seems like you forgot about the part that states,

Quote :

"(A) means a product that— ‘‘(i) is a tobacco product; and ‘‘(ii) meets the definition of the term ‘cigarette’ in section 3(1) of the Federal Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act;"

no, i and ii go along with A

B is separate i think

read it like this:

"‘‘(3) CIGARETTE.—The term ‘cigarette’—
‘‘(A) means a product that—
‘‘(i) is a tobacco product; and
‘‘(ii) meets the definition of the term ‘cigarette’
in section 3(1) of the Federal Cigarette Labeling and
Advertising Act; and
‘‘(B) includes tobacco, in any form, that is functional
in the product, which, because of its appearance, the type
of tobacco used in the filler, or its packaging and labeling,
is likely to be offered to, or purchased by, consumers as
a cigarette or as roll-your-own tobacco."

The Commissary has already adhered to most of this shizz. What I've gathered is basically you can still ask for your brand of cigarettes, they just won't be labeled. My grandmother smokes ultra light menthol and they're just a color now. "Let me get a box of those pink mistys"

What's really crazy is I think they will stop selling cigarettes on base soon too? Someone actually in the military might chime in on this though.
