Plastic Blue

What is the little blue plastic piece in the filter of camel's signiture series frosts?
If you tear open the filter of a camel frost you will find a little blue plastic piece. A reason I have postulated is to add flavor or menthol, but really i have no clue. Any body else have an answer?
I work at Nothin' Butt Smokes, and what I've always inferred from customer mention and experimentation is that it's nothing other than a flavoring strip.
The common cigarette is made up of three different labeled areas:
1: The tipping paper, which is where your tobacco is rolled and surrounded by a very light, thin membrane of - often oxygen bleached or colored - paper, tobacco paper, or hemp paper.
2: The filter, which is made up primarily of artificial filter fluff (Phillip Morris uses mostly artificial filter fluff material and leaves the rest to gumming agents and cotton) and/or cotton fiber. (R.J. Reynolds is one company that claims to use mostly cotton fiber as their filter fluff in a majority of their non-bargain cigarettes.)
3: THE FILLER ROD, which is a very small "blank" area left to drop flavors into during processing. Menthol crystals and strips, plants extracts (such as cinnamon and ginger-like flavors that go into your Camel ROBUST cigarettes) and nicotine additives (Marlboro brands typically, and cheaper bargain brands) are all such additives.
Now, I have to go to work! Blah. Hope this helped ya. : )
((Oh, and if you've never tried Salem brand cigarettes, t ry them! I gave them a t ry just yesterday, thinking it was some horrible R.J. Reynolds off-brand-ish mistake, but they're really pretty good. Not as menthol-esque as the frost, but quite enjoyable and at a reasonable price.))
