About this episode
Health professionals have warned against the dangers of puff bars on younger consumers for some time now. This recent phenomenon has become massively popular with young people, and especially on TikTok. Puff bars, also known as vape pens or pod mods, are flavoured electronic cigarettes designed for one-time use. Social networks have been flooded with puff bars of all different colours. From far away, their eye-catching design actually makes them look like sweets, which could be seen as a sneaky marketing move to target teenagers. They don’t contain tobacco and generally come in sweet and fruity flavours, such as wild berries, coconut, grapes, mango, mint or pineapple. On TikTok, users even have fun ranking the best varieties. Do they taste like regular cigarettes? How did this trend start? Are they as bad for you as regular cigarettes? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
