In response to a renewed request by the National Association of Tobacco Outlets (NATO), the FDA removed the incorrect "Break the Chain" flier from its website, where copies of the flier could be ordered.

The agency's Break the Chain retail flier stated retailers are not allowed to sell or give away to adult customers an item that has a tobacco brand name or logo.
According to convenience news provider CSP, NATO brought this statement to the attention of the FDA staff back in August, because the agency's tobacco regulations only prohibit items from containing cigarette, roll-your-own tobacco and smokeless tobacco brand names or logos, but not items with a cigar or pipe tobacco brand name or logo.
The updated version of the flier now reads: "Do NOT sell or give away items, such as hats, t-shirts, or lighters, with cigarette and smokeless tobacco brands or logos."
Also, since the incorrect version of the flier was mailed by the FDA to retailers, Dr. Lawrence Deyton, the director of the FDA's Center for Tobacco Products (CTP), assured NATO that the CTP would mail retailers the updated version of the flier. (pi)
