REAL cocaine isn't that addictive. Matter of fact scientists only recently "decided" it was addictive. Up until then...they universally said it was not (wonder if the U.S. govt. pressure had anything to do with that).
I'm not talking about that mixture of chemicals called "crack cocaine". I'm talking about honest-to-goodness old school cocaine like the kind that people snorted all the way from ancient times to Benjamin Franklin to Mick Jagger. lol
Smoking (nicotine) seems to be one of the most addictive things I've EVER seen.
Unless you start counting things that normally aren't thought of: sugar, caffeine, and carbohydrates.
The sugar and carbs are hugely addictive and the sugar kills more people every year from related health problems than everything else combined.
