The Supreme Court will hear oral arguments on Monday in a dispute over the Food and Drug Administration’s rejection of two companies’ applications to sell flavored liquids for use in e-cigarettes. A federal appeals court in Louisiana set aside the FDA’s orders denying applications by Triton Distribution and Vapetasia, complaining that the agency had sent those companies and other makers of e-cigarette products “on a wild goose chase.”
Honestly, I hope they do (though if they do, it’ll likely be for the wrong reasons).
I like my donut flavored vape juice. I’m an adult, and I like things that taste good. There are already controls in place to prevent children from getting them, so we should be using those rather than taking something away from adults “for the children”.
It would be one thing if there were advertising or mascots involved looking like they were intended or kids. But a flavor alone shouldn’t be the reason.
