i like to link coffee to vaping. both are drugs legal to buy, both have side effects. my state is trying to ban flavored vapes and all i can ask is when are we banning flavored coffee
Why ban either? Let people make their own choices.
That's his point, if they're going to ban flavored vape then they should also ban flavored coffee, as they're in the same drug category
plus the flavor ban is getting discussed because kids are getting into smoking because of the fruity and candy flavors, which just further dumbfounds me as we have made zero effort to ban flavored alcohol either. also kids cant buy vapes you have to be 21, yet with coffee which i'd say is about as addictive as vape (just ask what someone is like without their morning coffee for proof) kids can buy that no problem
