Those are ads from the 1970s. It has nothing to do with the OP’s question.

The big thing now is flavored e-cigs - all sorts of fruit flavors, bubble gum etc.

Maybe [not so great for your lungs](http://www.lung.org/about-us/blog/2016/07/popcorn-lung-risk-ecigs.html) but yum, tasty nicotine!

Yeah, I’ve never been a tobacco user (although I smoke a lot of cannabis) but the e-cigs are really cool.
