Hooked on vapes, some smokers go back to cigarettes to quit
Original: People hooked on vapes try a new way to quit: cigarettes
A Bloomberg report describes a paradoxical trend: people who became dependent on nicotine through vaping are switching back to conventional cigarettes as a way to quit. Because cigarettes feel less palatable than sweet-flavoured vapes, some ex-smokers hope the return to tobacco will wean them off nicotine entirely. Commenters are debating whether the approach reflects the failure of vaping as a quitting tool or simply nicotine addiction finding a new outlet, and what it says about regulation of e-cigarettes.
Why now: The irony of using cigarettes to quit vaping is sparking debate about nicotine addiction and e-cigarette regulation
