Talk:Menthol cigarette
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Most African American smokers are addicted to menthols." This needs a citation, and rewording if accurate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.226.1.136 (talk • contribs)
"It would be interesting to know when mentholated cigarettes were first put on the market, whose idea it was, etc."
- I can't help but feel this survey was biased or not well conducted. I see white people smoking menthol much more often than 13/20%, nationwide. Likewise, it sounds quite unlikely 56% of black smokers will not smoke a non menthol cigarette if its the only one available, especially compared to 28% white people. If true, perhaps this survey was conducted in a place where racial cliques smoke for fashion, ect? It's defiantly a classic example of wikipedia preferring a possibly unreliable source thats cited than completely true uncited fact. THat's just my personal thoughts, however.
