Why anyone would buy the not smoked one, I don’t know, but it is a thing.
Smoking something will make it mildly carcinogenic, and I imagine that some people might object to that. Probably also someone out there with food allergies.
IIRC the carcinogenicity is only true with meats, and that for example liquid smoke added to a vegetable based dish or veggies smoked in a smoker haven’t been found to be carcinogenic. I don’t blame anyone avoiding it out of caution, everyone has their own risk tolerance.
