On exhaling a mist is released that looks like smoke. These are available in various flavours such as chocolate and strawberry, indicating that they have been made to appeal the youth. Those in its favour say that it is better for the smokers when compared to tobacco cigarettes. On the other hand, those who disagree explain that it is worst mechanism that allows inhale of direct nicotine, hence, causing addiction.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration spent several months investigating e-cigarettes. FDA has refused entry of the same at U.S. Borders.
