    Oooh what about those candy cigarettes they used to have ... which they then changed to football sticks or something because they suddenly realised that maybe it wasn't the best idea to encourage kids to smoke! They use to have orange tips to indicate the smoking end of the ciggie and everything! Ahhh halycon days:)
