If youve ever wondered how many cigarettes are in a pack, the answer seems simple enough at first glance: walk into almost any convenience store in the US and youll grab a pack that holds 20
However, the product was also taxed and included in the same regime that covers traditional cigarettes
In it is the following: ( starting at top-left, working down in 3 columns ) Multiple butterfly bandages Water purification tablets Extra strength pain killers Multiple cotton swabs ( great fire starters ) Two moist towelette wipes Rubber band Black thread ( can be used as stitches too ) Floss ( can be used in many ways ) Superglue ( glue or liquid stitches ) 3 X 5 index card 2 sewing needles A small pencil tip 2 safety pins A micro multipurpose tool ( scissors, knife, can opener, etc ) Razor blade Piece of black plastic tube ( straw ) Match striking pad 4 water proof matches Small candle Small butane lighter Tinfoil Paperclip and lastly, the tin itself From this tin I can patch myself up from most minor injuries, stay clean, prepare a fire to stay warm, cook something on that fire, repair clothing, purify water, signal for help, and even leave a note behind for rescuers who may be looking for me
Some countries limit the number of cigarettes in each package to normalize taxes
