Monday, November 5, 2007 Y 18:07 OK i just feel like posting about smokers. It kills everyone know, but still tons of people love it and i just dont know why. Ooo.Yuck. Its burning. do you know how poisonous it is? It causes of multiple types of cancer, heart disease, respiratory disease, circulatory disease and birth defects. Its so harmful but why people like? Ok lets have some history lesson on how cigarettes came about. The earliest forms of cigarettes that have been attested in Central America around the 9th century in the form of reeds and smoking tubes. The Maya, and later the Aztecs, smoked tobacco and various psychoactive drugs in religious rituals and frequently depicted priests and deities smoking on pottery and temple engravings. The cigarette, and the cigar, were the most common method of smoking in the Caribbean, Mexico and Central and South America until recent times. The english-speaking world doesnt know about cigarette before the Crimean War, when British soldiers began emulating their Ottoman Turkish comrades, who resorted to rolling their tobacco with newsprint. The cigarette was named some time in the 18th century: beggars in Seville began to pick from the ground the cigar ends left by the señoritos (rich young men), wrapped the tobacco remains with paper and smoked them. [ Oh thats how this cigarette with paper come about. thanks to those beggars:( ] The use of tobacco in cigarette form became increasingly popular during and after the Crimean War. This was helped by the development of tobaccos that are suitable for cigarette use. During World War I and World War II, cigarettes were rationed to soldiers. Paper Tobacco blend The process of blending, like the blending of scotch and cognac, gives the end product a consistent taste from batches of tobacco grown in different areas of a country that may change in flavour profile from year to year due to different environmental conditions. ![]() |
