Ted, On tobacco companies, they kill as much as the candy and cookie manufacturers. That is only if you go out and buy the harmful products. As far as cigarette the difference between tobacco and candy manufacturers, the candy makers target a much smaller audience. I find it very difficult to keep my daughter away from the stuff. And I am sure you are familiar with NYC, it is difficult to walk a block without passing a store that sells candy. Sugar is more addictive than nicotine, and it is hard to use reason to a 2 1/2 year old. I think it will be a lot easier to talk about tobacco to a teenager. Don't get me wrong, I am not for banning candy or for suing the manufacturers, but I am for the same regulation and warnings as they have on cigarets, and even regulation on placement of various vending machines so that they are not within reach of children.
