That's what I'm afraid of and I may bail and buy Skoal. But I will get some snus and at least try it - I used to chew a lot of Skoal so I shouldn't go through what you did. I hope.

I never had any problems with snus--but I only use white mini mint portions, which are hard to find locally. So I buy regular white mint portions and divide them in half. Snus is very forgiving. Park a portion under your lip and don't disturb it. It will do its job. If you feel like it's too much, take it out and store it in the lid for later.

Regular, wet snus, and loose snus (;)) are not for the faint of heart.

But then I'm familiar with snus--snus was everywhere in Sweden and was dirt cheap compared with cigarette prices.

    I just really like the VT pudding base. I use it often to test new fruit flavors.
    If my pudding base fails I’m going back to that. I liked it too. I have two fruits to test tomorrow too.

    I almost forgot about them but I have some coffee flavored stonewall lozenges in my desk at work. If they are too strong then you can break them in half. They are in foil packs but are pretty old so I don’t know if they loose any effectiveness. If the snus doesn’t work out then let me know and I can send you some to try.

    I have both Stonewall and Ariva, coffee and mint. Mine are ca 10 years old. Do you think they are still safe to use? I've been trying to decide what to do with them for the past 5 years or so. :lol: Shame they don't make them anymore. I liked them even better than snus.

    FA Apricot? I would say it's about a 3.5-4.5 on a scale of 1-10.

    I was referring to level of sweetness with that post. Wasn't rating it as a flavor. I don't find FA Apricot to be a sweet flavor in the way that CAP Sugar Cookie, on it's own, is.

    Earlier Fran asked me how sweet it was. I used my scale of 1-10 for sweetness. 1 being not sweet at all and 10 being a flavor I would never vape.

    Can that be any clearer Ladies?

    :lol: :lol: You Silly Ladies.


    That's low. ;)


    It’s more confusing than anything because one page back he said he loves FA Apricot.
    I do love FA Apricot. :wub:

    I hope I've "de-confused" you now. :D

    I'm just not sure. I still have a fair amount of the java stonewalls. I wouldn't be afraid to try them since they are sealed.

    I'm not so sure anymore. My order shipped last 5 days ago and still no tracking. Never happened to me before with SM. Very strange.
    My tracking isn’t tracking yet either.

    I've been looking up what others are doing for pudding at ELR and ATF. Here are a couple I thought interesting. These are not the complete recipes. Both had numerous other flavors and fruits. I selected what I thought might/maybe/could possibly work.

    VTA Pudding Base 1%
    TPA Vanilla Swirl 2%

    Another had:
    VTA Pudding Base 1.75%
    TPA Bavarian Cream 1.5% ---> I'm not sure about that one, but who knows.

    Thoughts?

    If I had to pick it would be the first. However, like hitt, I like the 4% pudding base.
