"The FDA’s premarket application process requires tobacco manufacturers provide not only information on the composition, design and manufacturing process, but also chemistry, toxicological and behavioral studies that demonstrate the product − when used − is appropriate for the protection of the...
This bill would roll vaping products into the PACT act. Many in the vaping community are probably not familiar with the PACT act. I am all too familiar with it as it hit snus users in the US in 2010. The PACT act put restrictions on shipping for cigarettes and smokeless tobacco. Among a few of...
This is a simple multiple choice poll. You can choose any or all of the three choices.
This purpose of the poll is to get an idea of how well informed the vaping community on ECF is as to what the reason(s) vaping is considered less harmful then cigarettes. There is only one correct answer...
Eight Swedish Match snus products where approved by the FDA as a new legal tobacco product. All of them are in the General line. Perhaps someone can figure out which one they are. This is not the modified risk designation, but a new tobacco product designation. I guess if they kill off vaping we...
Not so scary after all as Brad Rodu points out. The occasional dry hit will likely cause..... about zero increased health risk. The link between formaldehyde and cancer is essentially not there and was made up by the "lets scare the bajebes out of everyone" gang, the same thugs who are pushing...
Rather bizzare considering the source. Obviously written by someone from the tobacco control industry.

So is the Big Bully RDA actually ever going to come back in stock or is the picture up there just because it looks so sweet and sassy. I'm way to old for this kind of tease.

NPR did a piece on electronic cigarettes a few days ago which you can find here. They appear to be interested in listener comments so tell them what you think.
Star Scientific Products Get New Life - Supplier News - Convenience Store News
Former employees of Star Scientific are bringing them back. I still have some and use stonewalls occasionally but it's a very minor part of my tobacco use, but I know there are some folks who use them a lot.
Interesting thread on snuff forum
Toque - Rustica Coarse - Snuffhouse
Looks like Toque is doing some heavy hitting snuff. At the moment it is only available in course 50 gram bags. They also have a fine grind but is sold out but more on the way. I would like to try a smaller amount, as in a 25...

I noticed when I was looking at the smokeless tobacco section of the CASAA site that dip (american type moist snuff), the most used form of smokeless tobacco in the US is not listed. I understand that some people may have some hesitancy about advocating a spit type of smokeless, but it clearly...
