    If you haven't seen it yet, there is a board here where many of us have posted our personal opinions of many snus. Most of the stuff available is there somewhere.
    http://www.snuson.com/forum/forumdis...4-Snus-Reviews

    And you asked about a fruity one too right? Some taste hints of fruity-ness in Roda Lacket's original flavor. Or you could go balls out and try Thunder Berry. That's kinda fruity (or berry-y? ha)

      interesting. thanks for your input Tristik. i will definitely give the Thunder Berry a try for a bolder and more full-flavor snus, hopefully the buzz doesn't kill me!

        GV,

        As far as a straight buying list I would definitely take out Probe and put in Granit. To me Granit is far superior to Probe and a very fine snus in its own right.

        However, I have always felt Granit was a toned down version of General (in fact I've even heard it referred to as the poor man's General. Which I think is unfounded since I like Granit way more than I like General). Regardless IMHO they do share a similar taste profile. Therefore because allenp was looking for something different from General, I left Granit off and included Probe.

          I've heard Granit described as having General's flavors inverted. Less pepper, and stronger citrus. I'd agree with that.

            don't get me wrong guys. General's peppery and citrus flavor is really growing on me and i'm starting to like it more and more, i simply wanted to view my options from your recommendations. thanks again everyone!

              Don't do Snus, I got Leukoplakia after just one year.

              I did all the research and I hadn't even been a long term user, did skol for about 1 year, then off it for 6 months, then I did snus after researching it and seeing it was so safe. 1 year on General Suns and I am screwed. I may have this crap eating at my mouth for the rest of my life! Mouth sores, nausea, candidis, it is just horrible and there is no real cure.

                Dude, you're either misinformed, or are outright lying. My suspicion is for the latter. In an absolutely just world, I'd delete your post and ban you, but that's not the way we roll here. What I will do is move it to the health forum.

                Edit:
                Crap, I didn't realize this was an old thread. I guess I'll just leave it here... :^/

                    You dipped before you used snus. My bet is you didn't discover your leukoplakia until well into your General stint. "Eating your mouth" comes from the high sugars added in dip, as well as other additives and the fermented tobacco itself.

                    So, don't go around whining your sob story about how you wrecked your mouth on dip and blame it on snus instead.

                      I concur... Don't beleive it and if true, Ya think it may have been from the Skol (spelled skoal) usage.. Another reason I doubt it is because this is how you first post to a forum...

                        Not at all sure of the cause of your leukoplakia as there are multiple causal factors. Using beta carotene might help put it into remission though. You may also want to see a nutritionist as your diet may be a predisposing factor.

                            He lives in his mommy's basement and is really lonely. He trolls and posts ridiculous information on various on-line forums to get a reaction from people to feel alive. Pathetic really.
