SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the differences between King and 100s cigarettes, specifically regarding their lengths and tobacco content. King cigarettes are 80mm long, while 100s are 100mm long, with 100s containing slightly more tobacco and a longer filter. Participants debate whether the additional tobacco in 100s offers better value or if the longer filter reduces harmful chemicals. Ultimately, the consensus is that 100s provide more tobacco for the same price, making them a better deal for smokers.
