You are prescribing something that contains nicotine, which is the addictive ingredient, to help others quit smoking? I can see the reason here.
Now, these people come up this this product, which CONTAINS nicotine, and markets it towards the general population, and the kids think its 'cool', because its "not really smoking or polluting the environment around you"
BUT it contains an addictive product?
Am I reading this right?

Yeah, I think so. This is probably the tobacco industry's next attempt at remaining viable. They sell us products that have nicotine, which is their main product, but it's "healthy" inasmuch as it doesn't have the smoke or the tars. Sort of like "lite" beers that have reduced alcohol that are less fattening.
