In my opinion, beginners should start out with light menthols, like Virginia Slim Menthol Lights or Marlboro Menthol Lights!. Menthol smoke has a minty taste that cools the smoke, so the smoke is easier to inhale, thus encouraging the beginner to smoke more!.
Over your smoking career, you will try many brands of cigarettes and will eventually find one you like best!. And tastes change over time, so people sometimes switch brands and types!. Sometimes people will change from lights to full-flavor to get more nicotine or to reduce the number of cigarettes they smoke, or will change from full-flavor to lights so they can smoke more!. Menthol smokers may change to regulars or vice-versa just for a taste change!.
If you are underage and want to start smoking, you will probably have to smoke whatever you can get!. For this reason, people usually start out smoking the same brand as their parents or friends, and then when they become legal, they try different ones!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Firstly there are your normal ciggarettes and then there are your menthols!. The difference here is that the menthols feel like sucking on a cough lolly and you get that smooth, airy feeling in the back of your throat!.
There also different strengths and flavours ranging in 1's, 8's and 16's (1 being mildest and 16 being strongest flavour)!.
Someone starting out would be best on the milder flavours where as someone who had been smoking 30 years could be smoking any, you tend to try a few types as a smoker and then stick to one brand and kind you like!.
Some brand names are:
Winfield
Peter Jacksons
Benson & Hedges
Marlboro
Brandon
Choice
Davidoff
Vogue
Alpine
Kool
Holiday
Horizon
Superkings

well this is a strange set of questions!
The 3 main type of cigarettes are Menthol, Cloves, and Regulars!.
Main brands are of course
Marlboro
Kool
Camel
Newport
Winston
Doral
Basic
GPC
Salem
Virginia Slims
as far as differences in them!? Not much, some only make menthol, some use different tobacco or import tobacco from elsewhere!. Some make wider cigarettes, some longer, some shorter!. People really just have a preference of Menthol or Regular, and what quality filter on the cig, then at some point just continue to buy the same brand until thats a habit too!.
As for what brand would you start with!.!.!. um, you shouldnt start with any brand!.!.!. shouldnt smoke at all!.!.!. but I guess I could say I personally started with newports!.!.!. and if I am still smoking in 30 years which I hopefully wont be, I would probably still be buying some type of menthol!.!.!.
strange questions!.!.!.

Instead of doing a report on whats good about cigaettes, do one based on the surgeon generals warnings about cigarettes and how thousands of people have died of cancer because they smoked those awful things!.
1) There are 1!.1 billion smokers in the world today, and if current trends continue, that number is expected to increase to 1!.6 billion by the year 2025!.
2) China is home to 300 million smokers who consume approximately 1!.7 trillion cigarettes a year, or 3 million cigarettes a minute!.
3) Worldwide, approximately 10 million cigarettes are purchased a minute, 15 billion are sold each day, and upwards of 5 trillion are produced and used on an annual basis!.
4) Five trillion cigarette filters weigh approximately 2 billion pounds!.
5) It's estimated that trillions of filters, filled with toxic chemicals from tobacco smoke, make their way into our environment as discarded waste yearly!.
6) While they may look like white cotton, cigarette filters are made of very thin fibers of a plastic called cellulose acetate!. A cigarette filter can take between 18 months and 10 years to decompose!.
7) A typical manufactured cigarette contains approximately 8 or 9 milligrams of nicotine, while the nicotine content of a cigar is 100 to 200 milligrams, with some as high as 400 milligrams!.
8) There is enough nicotine in four or five cigarettes to kill an average adult if ingested whole!. Most smokers take in only one or two milligrams of nicotine per cigarette however, with the remainder being burned off!.
9) Ambergris, otherwise known as whale vomit is one of the hundreds of possible additives used in manufactured cigarettes!.
10) Benzene is a known cause of acute myeloid leukemia, and cigarette smoke is a major source of benzene exposure!. Among U!.S!. smokers, 90 percent of benzene exposures come from cigarettes!.
11) Radioactive lead and polonium are both present in low levels in cigarette smoke!.
12) Hydrogen cyanide, one of the toxic byproducts present in cigarette smoke, was used as a genocidal chemical agent during World War II!.
13) Secondhand smoke contains more than 50 cancer-causing chemical compounds, 11 of which are known to be Group 1 carcinogens!.
14) The smoke from a smoldering cigarette often contains higher concentrations of the toxins found in cigarette smoke than exhaled smoke does!.
15) Kids are still picking up smoking at the alarming rate of 3,000 a day in the U!.S!., and 80,000 to 100,000 a day worldwide!.
16) Worldwide, one in five teens age 13 to 15 smoke cigarettes!.
17) Approximately one quarter of the youth alive in the Western Pacific Region (East Asia and the Pacific) today will die from tobacco use!.
18) Half of all long-term smokers will die a tobacco-related death!.
19) Every eight seconds, a human life is lost to tobacco use somewhere in the world!. That translates to approximately 5 million deaths annually!.
20) Tobacco use is expected to claim one billion lives this century unless serious anti-smoking efforts are made on a global level!.
Tobacco offers us a life of slavery, a host of chronic, debilitating illnesses and ultimately death!. And think about it: We pay big bucks for those "benefits!." Sad, but true!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
