An unbranded cigarette box during lying on the ground during the Battle of Voi.

Cigarettes are a tobacco product manufactured and "smoked" by humans. Like cigars, humans have smoked cigarettes for centuries.

26th century cigarettes are protected from moisture damage by waterproof seals. Some cigarettes have "ignition ends" which light the cigarette by tapping its end, thus elminating the need for external flammable implements; these cigarettes are popular among the Orbital Drop Shock Troopers.[1] Cigarettes requiring traditional means of ignition are also available.[2] The UNSC Defense Force issues cigarette consumption ordinances.[2] This is a likely reason for the popularity of tobacco gum as an alternative product.
