Pharmacies and drugstores sell cigarettes and anti-smoking products.
Pharmacies often sell candy, cookies, chewing gum, along with insulin and diabetic supplies.
Candy, cookies and chewing gum are not harmful in moderation or harmful to others.

A few (very few unfortunately) still have soda fountains where one can get 1000+ calorie, gooey ice cream treats, offset by weight loss products.

Perhaps they should be banned form selling such to people who need the weight loss products?

Pharmacies sell razor blades and bandages.

That one is just silly. Razor blades are for shaving.

Customers can choose on their own what to purchase there; conversely, the stores on their own can decide which comfort products to sell or not. But for a governmental entity to decide for them??????

Pharmacists are government regulated health care professionals. It does send a bad message. I would not oppose applying the same rules to all stores with pharmacies.
