Safe or not, it can't taste good.

I know gold leaf is edible, used in cake or chocolate decorating. But I sure as hell would not smoke it.

It's edible but smokable? Those things are $100, too.

On another forum we decided we need to get some edible gold leaf & wrap Creamosas and sell them for $75 to dumbasses.

Makes the Bolivar Gold Medal look like a even better value now that I can smoke the cigar and the foil.

Talk about a metallic taste.

Pffft. 24K gold cigar, please! These aren't worth my time. I smoke nothing less than platinum plated cigars.

Gold is inert but I'm not a doctor - probably no worse than all the other stuff we suck into our mouths when we smoke.

The intellect, or well-being, or health of anyone dumb enough to "invest" in gold plated cigars isn't really an issue, is it?

I'm going to sell that guy some crawfish and call them "micro-lobsters" genetically engineered for dainty, rich, and "discerning" palates. And then tell him that they are only 3000 bucks a pound.
