Cigars can cause mouth cancer, although I doubt that this actually happens to a normal casual cigar smoker. If you don't abuse it, you should be fine. And (correct me if i'm wrong) wasn't it Groucho Marx who lived to be more than 100 years old and still smoked a cigar a day?
Oh, and the FDA is a load of Bullsh*t anyways.
I agree 100% with this post. And I know George Burns lived to be a hundred smoking 10 or so cigars a day for most his life! He never smoked a cigarette in his life and never inhaled. And he started smoking cigars when he was 14 yo.
JUST DON'T INHALE CIGARS! If you do, you might as well smoke a cigarette, you'll live longer....
