What a rude awakening to be a smoker for years and then one day cigarettes are no longer the same. They smell strange, taste strange and make my throat burn. This in addition to chest pains, abdominal discomfort, dry eyes, vision changes, headaches, dizziness and more. What is the point of this additive? Reducing fires sure ain't it. I'm thinking...

B I O W A R F A R E

...and someone is sitting back taking notes on how many are being affected and they are getting away with it!

I agree with all the negative comments, I thought it was just me who felt this way light headed, stained fingers, Burning throat, smoke lingers longer, completely different taste and not for the better, just horrible and I have been smoking for many years and I noticed recently that they have changed and have a horrible taste. I have a cousin also smokes same brand He has been throwing up blood and he swears that he has been throwing up chunks of his insides...
My neighbor just found out she has stage four lung cancer and it possibly has spread to her brain. Don’t get me wrong I understand these aren’t good for you anyway but I feel like they are trying to kill us quicker.. we are adults and we understand these aren’t good for us anyways but that doesn’t mean that they have to start messing with the brand and start affecting us a lot quicker and I truly thought I was the only one that felt like this until I accidentally came across these comments shame on the company honestly..

I've smoked newports for 14 yes I never smoked any other cigs I've quit cold turkey multiple times and stay free and clear for years nd always find my way back... since Ive moved from the east coast (Philadelphia) to Colorado RjReynolds has taken over lorlillards cigs it a drastic change.. (Horrible )I've never had problems smokin lorlilards as soon as rjreynolds take over I've been gettin headaches often vomiting and even light headed... I thought maybe it was jus me until I started researching these b######s are out to kill us . I've officially quit and I'm dun no need to experiment nd try diff brand! IM DONE... And yes we all kno cigs are bad but over the years it's jus gotten ridiculous the flame [censor]ant hads made cig really a deadly weapon

I've been smoking since I was 15yrs old also. I just hit the 20yr mark so I decided to quit. I wasn't enjoying them for past few yrs because of the change in taste, and the effects of the added chemicals. Soar throat every couple days, headaches and can go on and on. I quit cold turkey, it's been 6 weeks, I feel great, it's amazing, breathe a lot better already, don't feel like I'm dragging all the time actually my energy level increased almost 50%. One of the best things I've ever done and u can do it to. You r in full control of it, u make all the decisions and will get immediate good feeling results, u control ur destiny, not cigarette company's. So take that big step to quit for urself, your kids, your family. Don't continue to fall victim to these altered "fake" cigs and force the government and these cig company's to find another way to get rich, and most importantly they will have to find another route to self inflicted population control! Think about the big picture people! I challenge u all to quit, and wish all who attempt the best of luck!

I've noticed chest pain too. Like a tight feeling. I only get Newports when they don't have the brand I normally smoke and every time I buy them my chest starts to hurt. I'm not buying them anymore

Smoked for over 25 yrs, DOCTORS use to smoke too, Now they say their bad for you, Why don't their packs say poison beware they will kill you! You use to smoke in hospitals, schools, waiting rooms, anywhere

Ever wonder what our cigarettes would taste like if they removed all the chemicals in them mandated by the FDA and other state agencies? I smoke Kool Kings and have since...well it has been a lot of years! Over the last 6 months or so I occasionally get cartons that have like a sour taste to them. For what we pay for these cigarettes we should be getting the best tobacco available and not some chemically altered product that barely resembles what we thought we were buying.

You're right, I'd been out of the smoking game for awhile and just started back last year. Something smells and tastes severely different about Newports. I hear fake packs are in circulation now there's a lot of videos showing a real pack against the imposter. $10.75 for a pack now. It's crazy.

I smoke Camels myself, and you're both right, the fire [censor]ant chemical they put in it has changed them for sure. But, I gotta say, none of these symptoms should be a surprise. I'm sure we all know smoking is probably one of the unhealthiest things you could do as it is, and the black stuff you're coughing up is expected when you smoke for so long, maybe it's finally catching up to you.

My advice is to just quit smoking. And don't say I wouldn't understand because as I stated, I'm a smoker too.

I feel the same. Sometimes it depends on the pack that I buy. Some burn my throat and give me a massive headache. This is the third day that I've awaken and felt like Ive been hit by a semi-truck, and coughed up black phlem. I've finally come to the point where enough is enough. I wanted to know what is in these cigarettes that is causing my head to hurt so bad. I did a google search for newports & headaches. I came up with a lot of stuff. Not only in regards to Newports but cigarettes in general. A list of ingredients that shocked me! How can anyone smoke and not have a headache with all those toxins?! Ive smoked newports since I was 15, switching to Marlboro lights when I thought Newports were too strong then back to Newports. Ignorance has kept me a cigarette smoker for 19 years. After reading the list of ingredients in cigarettes, who can continue to smoke? I'm done!
