Despite the obvious health risks, cigars remain a fixture of pop culture. An episode of Seinfeld centered around a box of Cubans, while the stogie's famous champions include Michael Jordan, Rush Limbaugh and Lil' Wayne. Politicians dabble too - Arnold Schwarzenegger is a noted fan - although puffing on a Cuban can leave an eggy residue on a pol's face.
