history

Vaping. E-cigarettes. Fake cigs. Whatever their name, you may have seen them around, or you may have someone you know who uses them instead of real cigarettes. It’s the device that releases fragrant smoke and comes in a variety of ‘flavors’ and scents, from heady vanilla to light and refreshing appletini.

There are some people who use vaping for easier transition to quit tobacco smoking, while there are others who use vaping as a way to smoke without the consequence of lung cancer. You inhale water and exhale vapor, and it looks just like smoke, but smells better and doesn’t have the bite of tobacco zipping down your lungs.

But where did it come from, really?
