Don’t Smoke Tea, Drink Cigarettes

Huh?  This gets ranked in the category of bizarre inventions – or better yet – why?  Well, Russian industrial designer Anton Schnaider created the ad you see here.  His plan was that the tobacco portion of the cigarette would be filled with tea leaves and that the filter would float so that there wouldn’t be a need for a string.  In the grand scheme of healthy tea – I’m not quite sure this is the marketing tactic I would take – but the idea never went beyond pen and paper as far as I can tell…what a relief!
