Juul quits selling fruit-flavored vapes — but mint and menthol stay

LA Times  

Juul Labs Inc. stopped selling fruit and dessert flavors for e-cigarettes in the United States on Thursday, acknowledging the public’s “lack of trust” in the vaping industry. A spokesman said the company is reviewing its products and practices and has not made ”any final decisions.” Mint and menthol account for most of Juul’s retail sales, analysts say, and are the most popular flavors among teens. The Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids’ Matthew Myers said Juul’s decision to keep selling mint and menthol shows “it isn’t serious about preventing youth use.” ”Juul knows that 64% of high school e-cigarette users now use mint or menthol flavors and this number is growing all the time,” Myers said in a statement. Thursday’s move marks a remarkable shift for Juul, which had argued for years that its flavors help adult smokers quit cigarettes.
