Se sintieron a\u00fan m\u00e1s relajados cuando los estados y municipios comenzaron a aprobar ordenanzas de no fumar en espacios p\u00fablicos, restaurantes, bares y edificios de oficinas.<\/p>\n<p>Pero espera. Ahora, los padres enfrentan una nueva preocupaci\u00f3n acerca de que los m\u00e1s j\u00f3venes se enganchen a la nicotina a trav\u00e9s de los dulces, cr\u00e9alo o no.<\/p>\n<p>RJ Reynolds Tobacco, segundo en la producci\u00f3n de cigarrillos en los Estados Unidos despu\u00e9s de Philip Morris Company, ha estado comercializando un nuevo producto llamado Camel Orbs en tres ciudades de los Estados Unidos. Uno de ellos est\u00e1 aqu\u00ed mismo en Oreg\u00f3n: el \u00e1rea de Portland es un mercado de prueba, junto con Columbus, Ohio e Indian\u00e1polis.<\/p>\n<p>El senador estadounidense de Oreg\u00f3n, Jeff Merkley, dijo que la gente se queda boquiabierta cada vez que saca un paquete de orbes. Dijo que los orbes est\u00e1n hechos de tabaco finamente molido mezclado con canela o menta y envueltos en una capa de caramelo. Vienen en un recipiente de pl\u00e1stico de bolsillo que recuerda a la popular caja de mentas para el aliento Tic Tac, pero tiene un aspecto m\u00e1s fresco y est\u00e1 decorado con el ic\u00f3nico camello de Reynolds, dijo Merkley.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEn realidad tiene la forma de un tel\u00e9fono celular, por lo que los padres o maestros no se dar\u00e1n cuenta de lo que los ni\u00f1os tienen en sus bolsillos\u201d, dijo Merkley. \u201cSi tienen una lata redonda de tabaco de mascar, los van a clavar. Pero estos no llaman la atenci\u00f3n. Todo acerca de este producto est\u00e1 dise\u00f1ado para atraer a los ni\u00f1os\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Bueno, a veces los adultos tambi\u00e9n, reconoci\u00f3.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTen\u00eda un paquete de ellos en la casa, y mi esposa entr\u00f3 un d\u00eda y comenz\u00f3 a abrirlo, pensando que eran mentas para el aliento. Mi hijo estaba horrorizado. Sab\u00eda lo que era\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Merkley ha apuntado a los nuevos productos de varias maneras.<\/p>\n<p>Cuando el Congreso aprob\u00f3 la Resoluci\u00f3n de la C\u00e1mara 1256 en junio pasado, otorgando a la Administraci\u00f3n de Drogas y Alimentos de los EE. UU. autoridad reguladora por primera vez sobre todos los productos de tabaco, Merkley logr\u00f3 copatrocinar una enmienda que requer\u00eda que la agencia realizara un estudio de investigaci\u00f3n exhaustivo de los nuevos productos solubles. en una v\u00eda r\u00e1pida\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPor supuesto, ten\u00eda la intenci\u00f3n de que una &#039;v\u00eda r\u00e1pida&#039; fuera de unos cuatro meses. Pero desafortunadamente, para la FDA, se trata de dos a\u00f1os\u201d, dijo.<\/p>\n<p>Su objetivo final, una vez finalizada la investigaci\u00f3n de la FDA, ser\u00e1 que se proh\u00edban por completo productos como Camel Orbs, dijo Merkley.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPor supuesto, las compa\u00f1\u00edas tabacaleras dicen que estos productos son solo una alternativa m\u00e1s saludable que los cigarrillos, que ayuda a las personas a dejar de fumar. Pero eso no es as\u00ed. Es solo una estrategia de marketing diab\u00f3lica\u201d.<br \/><strong><br \/><a href=\"javascript:openWin('http:\/\/www.registerguard.com\/csp\/cms\/sites\/web\/news\/sevendays\/24736911-35\/tobacco-orbs-merkley-camel-jeff.csp');\">Leer m\u00e1s -&gt;<\/a><\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Parents have been worrying for years about their youngsters being lured into the smoking habit by tobacco company come-ons, or even by hanging out where they breathe in secondhand smoke that can cause lung cancer just as if they were lighting up themselves.
