Plonker is the best description I can think of that is close to polite.

The Chairman of a think tank, and used to be a right banker too.
Apprently you don't need to be very bright to rise to the top in the USA.

Flavorings like chocolate, cherry and peach are clearly not aimed at the typical middle-aged consumer seeking to quit an addiction involving tobacco, and these products have not been proved to be effective in accomplishing that goal.

Anti cig-a-like champion DJS responds with "flavourings like Vanilla Custard, cherry menthol and Penelope's perfectly peachy peach juice are much more to the discerning palate"

Silly beggars.

And yes, we are all diseased! I think it may be contagious!

What an idiot! How many Green & Blacks are sold in a week? These contain both CHOCOLATE and CHERRY. I'm sure that's based at the middle-aged - elderly market(judging by the price point)! Great way to make a point!

This is meant to be an educated intelligent person? Words don't often fail me!!!!!

Indeed! How come the kids get all the good flavours? My gran (86) makes a mean trifle, and that's got fruit, custard AND chocolate, so ner! Tease-smiley

more utter dross from some supposed intellectual . .. the more of these sort of uneducated, mindless, un-thought-through things I read, the angrier I get
