Dr. Batty's Asthma Cigarettes
Cigarettes with unknown contents claimed to provide temporary relief of everything from asthma to colds, canker sores and bad breath. "Not recommended for children under 6."

Dr Batty ... pmsl :rofl:

Yeah, cocaine, amphetamines, nicotine and menthol. So much better than carefully designed chemicals that go through years of development and testing and do things like, oh, actually beating cancer rather than causing it.

‘Big pharma’ conspiracies are amongst the most bone-headed on the internet, given that sooner or later we all rely on pharmaceuticals (or, in the case of Steve Jobs, for example, avoid them a little too long and end up dying of something treatable).
