i have smoked marlboro for over 15 yrs. and i really hate to change but, how can these be fire safe cigarrettes when the fire falls out of the cigarette? this has even happened while driving. this is very unsafe and they also have been giving me a headache. my only option is to change. i enjoy smoking, or at least i did until the f s c was added!!!

The marlboro ciggarettes i bought a couple of days ago would not stay lit and the cherry kept falling out. Very poor quality.

These FSC Tobacco Products are horrible. I can give you a list of 212 people right now that will not buy or smoke these produces as long as there FSC. All though they were made to go out to stop so many fires, i also have a list of 86 people who have still had there FSC smokes catch there belongings on fire. Yes maybe it would have been worse for them if those smokes were not FSC but, I would like u to consider this... The 212 people i speak of all have these symptoms ...Dry mouth, Constant headaches or Migraines, Constant cough, Constant sore throat, Shakiness or Trembling, Upset stomach, ect... And again keep in mind these people are all located in portnorfolk alone... Please help us. With all the money spent on our country weapons i would think you could afford to keep the consumer a little healthier and really make smoke safer .

I think its absolutely ridiculous that Americans everywhere are forced to pay an outrageous price in order to engage in a private, personal lifestyle habit. I understand the nation's views on smoking, but I don't really care since its my body, my money, my life. I don't condone smoking, but since I am not planning on quitting anytime soon, I feel like it is my right to smoke all I want. The price and taxes kept getting higher and higher to smoke, and I kept shelling out the money for it. I even went through a period of homelessness and still always managed to find a way to smoke. When I found out about all the cigarettes becoming FSC, that was the last straw. I was infuriated that no information was really addressed to the public. I can see the letters "FSC", but I basically had no clue that it was there ore what it meant until someone else pointed it out. It all made sense after I started reading about it and realized that my lung and throat irritation and stomach issues were probably a direct result of the FSC. I even lost my voice for about 2 weeks, literally I could not even whisper. I am now boycotting American cigarettes and am purchasing my cigarettes from overseas. They are cheaper and save me over 50% and also are not FSC. More and more people I know are beginning to boycott the FSC and ultimately, I feel that this will impact a huge loss for the tobacco companies. I feel that this was in no way whatsoever, a very intelligent move to enforce yet another condition and stipulation on our personal habits without even warning us what was coming...you have failed misererably...

I understand that this may not be Marlboro's fault because of the new laws passed for the FSC cigarettes but we should have a choice if we want to purchase FSC or regular. I know cigs aren't good for you but whatever they are adding to it can't be any more helpful but since they basically put a warning saying cigs will prolly kill you it makes them exempt from further liability. Honestly. I don't know wheather to complain or thank you, since I quit smoking because of this new type of cigarette, which in turn helps me save more money because of the prices steadily increasing. Since this has started, I know 5 people that have quit smoking already and more in the progress so kudos to the government for trying to have control over peoples lives(said with sarcasm), I guess in a way you are helping some by so many people quitting instead of smoking these nasty cigarettes.
