Two years ago,
Marlboro cigarettes and Newport non-menthol cigarettes were hot sale. However, the Newport menthol cigarettes were more and more popular with the young people.
Studies have shown that African Americans and young adults are the biggest menthol smokers. And
Newport menthol cigarettes are harder to give up than non-menthols.
According to statistics, 62 percent of African Americans and 61 percent of Hispanics who attempted to quit smoking non-menthol cigarettes did so. Yet only 44 percent of African Americans and 48 percent of Hispanic
Newport cigarettes smokers could quit.
