Do new FDA rules prevent selling cigar samplers?

What it boils down to is a retailer can no longer give anything away. No free cigars or pipe tobacco.

In my company (healthcare manufacturing) we deal with FDA issues every single day. You have no idea how absolutely convoluted the reasoning is.

You can't change ANYTHING. No common sense WHATSOEVER. Labeling, records, ANYTHING & EVERYTHING!

Over-regulation is KILLING us. Obviously, regulations are necessary. But "OVER" regulation is what has become the norm.

And can you imagine -- the FDA has, as I understand -- has forbidden cigar companies from donating cigars to our troops?

Really aggravating!
