alt Hacker NewsTobacco, wine and fresh bread are usually few of the consumables that in many western countries do not have to disclose their ingredients.
Why do we allow this? Just behave like all others.
Now we want to push for smoke-free societies: but non of ways to achieve this even dares to talk about "just make tobacco giants list all the ingredients/additives".

I don't think anyone is under the delusion that cigarettes are healthy for you. Everyone knows they cause multiple cancers. That's part of the appeal. It shows how 'tough' and 'cool' the user is. No matter what you do, there will always be a reactionary group of people doing the opposite of what they are told.

Tangential but similar nonsensical secrecy for consumables: alcohol not requiring a nutrition label always irks me.
