3. Packaging and warnings
The biggest hypocrisy of the tobacco industry is claiming that health is not a concern for tobacco intake. They rely on isolated ingredients and their alleged lack, or positive consequences, without actually labeling and including a list of all of the ingredients for the public to see.
It has been discussed that these companies are happy and prefer written warning labels that most will not read, to the newer graphic labels, or ingredient lists. Social studies have shown that written labels do not deter consumers from using a product, in the ways an image may affect a choice. The United States is one of the many countries that have yet to move from written labels to graphic labels now present in other parts of the world, including Brazil.
