CURIOSITY CORNER-DEATH CIGARETTES

Yes they were a real brand and were available in newsagents. The advertising campaign knowingly contentious. The brand was launched at the start of the self proclaimed ironic Nineties and discontinued in 1995. A case of a product doing exactly what it said on the tin. They even made a low tar version Death Light.

Something like these (named “Death cigarettes”) are available in the Netherlands. They’re generally sold alongside things called “Pink Elephants”. They’re the length of most filterless pre-rolled cigarettes or Ireland’s favourite death-smoke, Majors. Both Death and the Elephants (Good band name) are incredibly noxious and, according to a friend who tried them, would put you off eating for 6 hours. Both are flavoured with vanilla, just to valiantly attempt to make them that little bit more attractive.
