Possible motives behind Juul pulling flavors

[ProlineVaper]

I was just watching Regulator Watch and they mentioned Atria (?) who owns the Marlboro brand also owns a large chunk of Juul.

With the recent announcement from Juul to pull certain flavors and keeping tobacco flavors. This announcement now makes sense knowing that Marlboro owns quite a large share. Keeping tobacco flavors as the only flavors available makes it pretty much easier to switch back and forth between e-cigarettes and traditional cigarettes if prices change drastically due to taxes.

So in all reality Juul is protected either way.

Does anyone else have any thoughts on this?

Buncha sellouts. Juul is on my shit list. Bad advertising, selling to BT, covering their own asses while they try to throw the rest of us to the dark ages.

I am thinking that Juul is trying hard to get FDA approval. But I expect that they will have to drop their nic to 20 mg or lower to get approval.
Personally I would like to see them go down the tubes. They have NOT helped vaping.

And lets not forget their direct marketing to kids in classrooms.

I agree 100% with you. However $$$ makes the world go round and they have a lot of it. And with big tobacco as a shareholder they have even more. It kind of makes me wonder what is really going on there. 2 opposing industries joined...what is really going on? Just something to think about.

Opposing or complimentary?
Kinda like Little Debbie owning a Keto company.

good point. which goes back to the win win situation for Juul. They are covered no matter which way any flavor ban may go.
