Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems |
The next few questions are about electronic or e-cigarettes and other vaping devices, such as e-hookah and vape pens. Popular brands include Blu, Vuse, NJOY, and Flavor Vapes. |
These devices are battery powered and produce vapor instead of smoke. Some look like normal cigarettes, some are very colorful, and some have tanks that contain liquid. |
Waterpipe |
The next few questions are about smoking tobacco in a hookah, which is a waterpipe with one or more hoses. Although people sometimes smoke marijuana in a hookah, we are only asking about smoking tobacco. |
A hookah is a water pipe used to smoke specially flavored tobacco called shisha. The tobacco is heated with charcoal and filtered through the water-filled body of the pipe before being inhaled through a hose. Shisha brands include Jewels, Starbuzz, and Strikingly Fresh. |
Little Cigars and Cigarillos |
The next few items are about little cigars and cigarillos that contain tobacco, and not marijuana. These are smaller than traditional cigars and some are even the same size as cigarettes. Popular brands are “Black & Mild” and “Swisher Sweets.” |
Little cigars are slightly larger than cigarettes, while cigarillos resemble full-sized cigars, but are smaller. Both contain pipe tobacco wrapped in tobacco leaves and come in flavored varieties. They are available with and without a filter and/or tip. |
