Hopefully many on-lookers will see this and begin the quitting process. If we can help just one individual it is worth it :)

Thought you'd all like to know what the real use of the chemicals in cigarettes really is. Aren't you glad you don't smoke?????
Preserves DEAD bodies. Formaldehyde
You can also find this ingredient in RAT POISON. Cyanide
The drug that makes it hard for you to quit smoking. It's used in other things too, like the BUG SPRAY you use on your plants. Nicotine
See those yellow stains on a smoker's teeth? The same chemical is used to PAVE STREETS! Tar
Helps your car run, because it's also USED TO MAKE GASOLINE. Benzene
You wouldn't stand behind a car with exhaust coming out, would you? This exhaust is also in cigarettes. Carbon monoxide
This is a POISON used to kill bugs. Hydrogen cyanide
You see it everyday when you throw out your trash because it's also used to MAKE GARBAGE BAGS. Vinyl chloride
Found in BATTERIES!!. Lead
You clean your house with this chemical. Don't smoke it! Ammonia
You can use it to take off your NAIL POLISH, but you also inhale it when you smoke cigarettes. Acetone
MMMMMMMMMM DOESN'T THIS MAKE YOU WANT TO LIGHT UP?
