“The American Lung Association and other health groups are asking federal regulators to ban menthol in cigarettes.  The groups says the minty taste is just as effective at getting smokers hooked as other flavorings that were banned under the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act of 2009.  The Tobacco Control Legal Consortium, a group of researchers, academics, non-profits and government health agencies, filed a citizen petition with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) last week asking for an investigation into menthol cigarettes.  More than 80 percent of African-Americans smoked the product, according to the groups.”
