When eCigs first appeared around here, it was in the Tesco Pharmacy, so I thought they must have a decent level of quality and safety.

But now I see most of them sold from Asian cheapo shops, and that makes me wonder how safe those are, if at all. So regulation and checks on quality are good in my mind, though that will probably cause a HUGE hike in price.

Pall Mall have just launched cigarettes which have a capsule in the filter: smoke as normal, or pop the capsule and get a "subtle (menthol) flavour". I wonder if this is to get around this new EU edict?
