I am on my way to Houston Hobby Airport to pick up my son, he is bringing a gift to me from someone in California, a pack of cigarettes. I quit smoking 6 years ago except for an occasional cigar (and nearly quit those too) but I am excepting these because it is supposed to be a great honor to receive these, they are PANDA cigarettes from China.

What do you know about these? I am totally ignorant about them other than it is an honor (I am told) and I am graciously accepting them and I think they go for the equivalent of $30 USD per pack in China. Never heard of them before a few days ago. So tell me about these...

Thanks
