If a company can increase profit by siding with popular opinion they will.

Exactly what I'm saying. Except that in this case, it's not clear they are actually increasing profit, so much as making an assumption come true by marginalizing certain products.
I remember something similar with porn, back when porn magazines actually sold...

If this trend continues we will have to stop calling them "Drug Store Blends"...

Ok so here are a couple of articles on Forbes that resemble what I found the other day.
Forbes - Walgreens
Forbes - Rite Aid/Walgreens

Here's the deal. If you stop selling tobacco to look good and appease the modern day teeny bopper like CVS and Rite Aid have done, guess who's getting the tobacco money you were getting- someone else. It's like not buying leather goods to "stop cruelty to domestic animals". Good for you, Mr. Veggie. Someone else is still enjoying a nice pair of boots.

Walgreen used to carry (and maybe some still do) a blend called "Toasted Cavendish"

This IMO was the best blend that they offered it came a 14 ounce bag, I cannot find it in our local walgreens.
