  "abstract": "As the US government steps up enforcement against unauthorised e-cigarette devices and flavours,1–3 multiple brands of ‘nicotine alternative’-flavoured inhaler devices have emerged on the American market. Advertised as a cessation aid for smokers and vapers, these products closely imitate the form and flavours of popular e-cigarette products. While they contain no nicotine and are allegedly designed to help tobacco users quit, they have not been authorised by the US Food and Drug Administration as cessation aids and are reminiscent of candy cigarettes and similar historic products that have been shown to encourage youth tobacco initiation.4 We examine three major brands in detail here, though we also identified many small manufacturers of similar products in online shops.",
