I just wanted to take a moment to let you know that I recently opened a package of Doral full-flavor cigarettes, and as the pack lay on my table, I suddently noticed a parade of bugs exiting the pack. They resembled an ant with pincer claws. Needless to say, I threw the pack away. What was up with that?
