I Smoked Chocolate Cigarettes With Style

It was early in the morning, my mum and dad were fast asleep, and I was on a mission.

The evening before, my two brothers and I had stuck three carrots snuggly into our shoes (one each). We also had sung our socks off. Surely, our loud shrieks had been heard?!? Tradition dictated that I should. I had been good all year (I was convinced) and all preparations were made when our singing had concluded.

I made my way downstairs in whisper mode, looking to find out the gift left in my shoe. Both to my dismay and relief, I found both my equally sneaky brothers downstairs, helping themselves to the treasure they found in their shoes.

Chocolate cigarettes!

The box very much looks like a real pack of cigarettes (minus the health warning). When you open it, you will find cigarettes that are made with paper wrappers filled with chocolate.

My brothers duly ravaged their pack of cigarettes, evidenced by the wrappers spread around the living room floor. Breakfast was still some time away and their appetite had gotten in the way of smoking these chocolate delights the right way. I was about to show them.

Now, how do you smoke a chocolate cigarette with style? Here is some guidance that will help you smoke your chocolate cigarettes as it matters (accurate as of 1980's).

Personal Tip: To be the coolest kid in the living room, I always aimed the paper balls at the ashtray my dad was using.

My brothers were either in awe or keen to have my cigarettes with their stares fixed on my half-empty pack. You can imagine how satisfied I was for my dad to see me lounging on the sofa, as he came down the stairs and smiled.

I was smoking my chocolate cigarette in style as he reached for the ashtray.
