So I LOVE dissolvables. I've had both ariva and stonewall, and I like them both. I figured I would share a list here about what I think Star Scientific could do to make their products even batter, tell me if you guys agree.
1. Make them dissolve faster under your lip, or rather make a faster dissolving version. This, I would say is the first thing Star Scientific, and anybody else who makes dissolvables should consider (or, RJR could quit holding out on us and make a national release of camel's dissolvables, because those strips sound good to me). Sometimes it's actually pretty nice having it take really long to dissolve. It's great when I want a slow, stable amount of nicotine. when I'm at work on the other hand, sometimes it'll only be half way dissolved by my break, and I'll wanna eat! When this happens, I'll usually wind up spitting it in the toilet before I eat (we're not supposed to have smokeless tobacco there, so I always put it in or spit it out early in the bathroom to be on the safe side), and that's just a waste! I want something that'll be in and out in 30-45 minutes without me having to suck on it, which burns my throat.
2. More flavors/give stonewall all the flavors ariva has. Now I've never had any of ariva's flavors other than mint and wintergreen, but I got a feeling Cinnamon has to be good. maybe not citrus, but either way. Also, MAKE A CLOVE FLAVOR! The lack of clove tobacco products other than some cigarillos these days is disturbing, and clove stonewall would be AMAZING!
3. make them more comfortable! this is only really a problem with stonewalls, but when I pop stonewalls in, they're a little uncomfortable for a few minutes, if they could design it so that it pokes into my gums a little less, I'd be very happy.
so what do you guys think?
