Walmart decided to stop selling fruit-flavored e-cigarettes, responding to an FDA push to combat a surge in underage use
Walmart Inc. said it is raising the minimum age to purchase tobacco products to 21 in all its stores and will stop selling fruit-flavored e-cigarettes, amid pressure from regulators and others working to curb use by children and teens.
In April, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration called out the country’s largest retailer for being a top violator of illegally selling tobacco products to minors. The FDA sent similar letters to Family Dollar, which is owned by Dollar Tree Corp., Kroger Co. and others.
