This feels like a bit of a confession...

I threw out half a tin of snus tonight. And I don't feel guilty about it. :evil:

I tried working through it, portion by portion, but something about the flavor in the OR Cranberry has all but turned my stomach since the first time I tried it. I know everyone here recommends coming back to those flavors a bit later... but I'm just gonna call that one a learning experience and hope it never darkens my doorstep again. :nah:

To many flavors I'm loving to be tied up with one that's not working for me. :D

which snus did you toss out?

what didnt you like about it?

im learning about snus and im curious about your opinion

It was Offroad Cranberry. The taste, to me at least, was like someone soaked the stuff in grain alcohol. I didn't get cranberry at all, but I did get alot of "burn." Not like the burn of the mint flavors at all. I keep coming back to thinking of the first time I took a sip of Everclear... burned the gums, the tongue, the sinuses, and the throat. A portion of Ettan was able to get me squared away pretty quickly after all the unpleasantness. :)

Your mileage may vary, of course, and I hope it does!

By the way, I literally laugh out loud every time I see your avatar. That's classic!

How many cans of the T-bombs do you have left?

I have 8 left :D. And I'm rethinking my strategy....I might order some more....I donno. I've got a round of Oden Original Extra Stark I haven't popped the lid on and some Skurf ES on the way. After which I'll figure out which extra stark I really wanna stock up on. Got lots of Thunder Frosted, a generous amount of Oden ES Kanel los and several cans of Lab 02. We'll see :).

Away..
Nothing to feel guilty about.
Thats why they don't make just one flavor. I'm sure there are some that will never find a snus they like. Many don't like the method of delivery.
I kinda feel that way abt los. Never tried it as snus, but long ago as dip seemd it was everywhere. Constantly spitting something.

Maybe it was above my skill level............lol

    Somewhere between here and there
    The OR cranberry is actually one that I like. I don't have the most acute sense of taste and smell but for some reason I do like it. Now if I had to vote for one to throw out it would be the jakobsen iced fruit. I have never had another snus that tasted like I had a block of salt in my mouth pretty much the whole time I had the portion in. It was just bad but for some reason I have still not thrown it out yet.

    Haha. I've been thinking the same thing about los. I can't help buy thinking about my misguided adventures with cherry Skoal while I was in school. The nightmares about mudmouth are still too fresh in my mind to be that brave! :)
