WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. Inside The Tobacco Center in Williamsport, several menthol cigarette brands were on display.
The U.S Food and Drug Administration says it wants to ban all menthol cigarettes and flavored cigars and tobacco after new studies show those products are more appealing to smokers.
Lisa Skinner of Williamsport has been a smoker for 20 years.
“I probably would be upset because I smoke menthol and I feel like full flavor,” said Skinner.
