Question Why??

What i dont get is why have all 999 chemicals in ciggs? i think they should only have 3-4

1. to preserve the tobacco
2. to make it burn
3. to make the paper burn

thats it. lol
your thoughts?

Didn't Winston have the "no additives" catch line in late 90's/early 2000's? Wonder why they dropped it. I used to smoke them for a while just because of this even though I hated them.

From what I have read, it has to do with adding the taste to the brand of cig.

I wonder what it's for then? Ironic how they can add all these additives but when they put orange or chocolate flavouring in them, they were banned. Yup means perfect sense to me.
