Ridiculous. Until they are illegal why not continue to sell them?
As has already been pointed out look, at all of the other unhealthy products that they sell. This is a public relations grab and nothing else. Someone high up in the corporation figures they will make more money from people coming into their stores because of this move.
Alcohol, tons of sugared products, salted nuts, poisonous cosmetics, all kinds of processed foods with cancer causing additives, caustic cleaning solutions and who knows what else are still be sold there and no one cares. The anti tobacco people simply have a better PR department the people who are against these other things.
Does anyone think that fewer people will smoke because of this.
