ok i had to open them first the smell is fantastic its pure tobacco with a hint of smoke there is a slight taste of salt you can see the little salt crystals on the tobacco the flavor is great theirs a hint of pepper with a slight sweetness kind of like molasses and pure tobacco straight pure tobacco there in small nugget like pieces moist but not wet there a bit hard but once you chomp down on it a couple of times it softens right up it fits under the lip very nice and is comfy the nic hit is pretty good well its a blast i could feel it hit its still going strong had it in now almost 30 min theres not a lot of juice its just right heres a few pics of them

How are these meant to be used? Like Oliver Twist?

Are they as safe as Swedish snus or is this a totally different process?

I imagine it's pretty close to snus for safety; even American leaf chew is. There could be a problem with sugar though. If they use sugar in the curing, it could cause tooth rot if used frequently.

i still have it in i stuck it in where i put snus its still going strong this is fantastic

Where did you get those from, and do they carry the Roda Lacket ones also?
Seems the place I used to get them from periodically no longer carries them.

I wouldn't worry about these cuts health-wise. I'm pretty sure that both the General and Roda Lacket versions contain no added sugar (I've tasted american chew and these and these are nowhere near the sweetness, if anything they're saltier than snus).

You can use them in the cheek or in the upper lip. They can feel a bit hard in the upper lip, but once they've softened up with a little chewing and time in the mouth they're pretty comfortable. They also have the added bonus of a bit more natural tobacco leaf flavour than any snus I've had. The hit is a bit more slow to come on than snus, but it lasts a long time.

I think they're great!

Exactly!!! Damn it CJ you got me all worked up. Here I am reading through this whole blame post, excitement building, more folks joining in asking where, suspense mounting between the periodic “taste still going strong” updates and then....and then.... and then.....nothing. The flipping snus exchange is what I get. And so I quote our illustrious forum contributor, sandman1911, when I too say

Well Shit
