在美国食品和药物管理局(FDA)的压力下,JUUL Labs于2018年11月暂停在美国实体零售店销售黄瓜,奶油,水果和芒果口味的豆荚,作为该公司防止青少年使用电子烟计划的一部分。随后,在青少年电子烟流行率持续上升的背景下,薄荷口味的受欢迎程度激增。1 2019年10月,JUUL Labs停止了包括薄荷在内的大部分调味豆荚在零售店和网上的销售,但薄荷醇和烟草除外。其他公司迅速利用这些行动,并生产了各种口味的JUUL兼容豆荚,包括最受欢迎的JUUL口味(如芒果,黄瓜)。22019年9月,我们收到了一些轶事报道,称一种新的电子烟产品-一种与JUUL非常相似的一次性“豆荚”-在基恩大学的大学生中很受欢迎。随后,我们搜索了一个专门针对JUUL的Reddit子论坛,发现提到了2019年春季末开始出现的一次性“pod-mods”。这些帖子中提到的品牌包括“Posh”,“Eon Stik”和“Mr. Vapor”,评论集中在品尝类似于JUUL的味道,比JUUL豆荚持续时间更长,并且像JUUL一样具有良好的“命中”;发布的图像突出了与JUUL相似的物理尺寸。3–5
Under pressure from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), JUUL Labs suspended sale of cucumber, crème, fruit and mango flavoured pods in US brick and mortar retail stores in November 2018 as part of the company’s plan to prevent youth e-cigarette use. Subsequently, mint flavour surged in popularity, against a backdrop of continued increases in youth e-cigarette prevalence. 1 In October 2019, JUUL Labs halted sales of most of their flavoured pods, including mint, in retail stores and online, with the exception of menthol and tobacco. Other companies quickly capitalised on these actions and produced JUUL-compatible pods in a variety of flavours, including the most popular JUUL flavours (eg, mango, cucumber). 2In September 2019, we received anecdotal reports that a new vaping product—a disposable ‘pod-mod’, closely resembling JUUL—was popular among college students at a Kean university. We subsequently searched a sub-Reddit forum dedicated to JUUL to find mention of disposable ‘pod-mods’ which began appearing late Spring 2019. Brands mentioned in these threads included ‘Posh’,‘Eon Stik’and ‘Mr. Vapor,” and comments focused on tasting similar to JUUL flavours, lasting longer than a JUUL pod and having a good ‘hit’like a JUUL; posted images highlight the similar physical dimensions to JUUL. 3–5
