    I hope that’s the case. The black label snuv is definitely out of my league, but if a nic fiend orders it to quit smoking, I’m happy for him. I see the value in supporting all, but for me, there’s only two places available, and I’m going to take the most honest. If Rods prices were the higher cost, I’d still buy his. If I feel I’ve been cheated even slightly, I’ll not deal with that business. I will stand behind integrity every time. It may be that MrSnuff has gone through changes and brought integrity to the front of his priorities. I hope this is the case. But at this point, I’m already devoted to do business where I felt, they needed ME. When I was made to feel like I didn’t matter as a customer, I stopped feeling good about doing business there. I really hope they’ve changed their perspective. Someday, maybe I can change mine. Right now, I get everything I need, and then some, from Toque.

    I absolutely agree with you, @tompanepinto. This wasn’t a crusade for me, though. I merely mentioned my distaste for aluminum. I try to eat good, but this American FDA doesn’t make it easy. So I try to eat vegetables and smaller portions of meat. Exercise is one thing I personally need to work on, but I read labels on everything and try to make the best choices in diet. I don’t eat processed foods if I can help it, and stay away from snack foods. Corn chips and salsa seem to be my biggest weakness! I know those corn chips are just empty calories, tho.

    Undervalued, maybe. But I think cigarettes are overvalued and the tax can be argued as criminal or incentive. It definitely falls under incentive! And I also see it as criminal, but no more criminal than the cigarettes producers adding so many harmful chemicals. I know Roderick is giving an honest price, and profit has to be satisfactory, but honestly, it’s cheap. That in itself is great incentive for smokers to switch. So far, I’ve converted two, and regularly order Red Bull for a coworker. He’s tried many, but that is his favorite.

    You’ve done well, to give great customer service and show people you care. I never got that elsewhere. Keep up the good fight, my friend.

    For some, they have been spending it there for years, and feel obligated as a loyal customer. Then when it hits home, and someone offers great prices on fresh snuff, one feels like he must create a new line, all of which is contracted out, and similar to the contractors brand, but the price is still high because people like gimmicks with catchy names. I’m sure they’re all good snuffs, but I for one won’t be paying prices like these. Not even out of curiosity. Up to $11.99 per 10g. I’ll give them this much credit, though. They have some snazzy descriptions, as follows…

    “Description
    Try to savour the herby hint of mixed berries, mostly raspberry-jammy bubblegum, before you get a hard kick in the pudenda which will, for a while, distract you from any aroma. When your nose settles down and stops pulsing fit to burst an artery, note the subtle undertones of wild lavender, Himalayan barberry (which tones down the sweetness), vanilla pod and bitter orange with hints of jatamansi and clematis. The raspberry still prevails, though less sweet; more like the actual berry picked fresh off the plant on a warm summer evening.

    The flavour lasts for ages. We didn’t bother timing it but a solid hour later (time for another dose) a squeeze of the nostrils gave a satisfying renewal of the base aromas. A little bit like scratch and sniff, kiddos.

    Leave a review. We love to hear how much you love, hate, hate to love, or love to hate these products. Details please. We’ll reward you with more pain, (masochist). We are always open to suggestions for future products.”

    It will take more than smooth talk to get into my wallet. People can pay twice or even 5 times the price if it makes their pudenda quiver, but I’m content to satisfy myself with honesty.

    Looking through some articles on studies, and found some conflicting (of coarse) info, but I don’t trust studies with links/funding from pharma. This one seemed quite genuine in findings. I had read in the 80s (I wish I could remember the medical magazine) a study that brought up the possibility of this dilemma, and I have a tendency to follow things over time. We all thought mom was just a bit odd, but looking back, I believe she suffered from toxicity of more than just the aluminum. Hack doctors had her on over 30 medications for one thing or another. But she did love her aluminum. Pots, pans, utensils, antiperspirant, skin cream, etc. I started back then reading all the labels in the house, and was shocked at the amount of everyday products containing aluminum.

    <p style=”text-align: left;”>What about areas with hot, humid summers? I use the mini fridge in the summer, as warm as I can get it, about 54°F. Then in winter, I unplug it, as it stays in a rather cool room, anyway. If I could climate control at 65°F all year, I would, with 70% humidity. Wish I could figure that one out without spending 5 bills on an automated humidor..</p>

    I do admit, her eating habits and penchant for pharmaceuticals (not for getting high), and lack of quality exercise, was most likely the largest culprit for her demise. Never smoked or drank, never did drugs. It was very undeserving, as she gave to those who needed to a fault, and did without for herself. But I have read many articles and studies, years past, that connected Alzheimer’s to aluminum. Aluminum, it seems has the ability to pass through the brain barrier, unlike most metals. At least these studies implied so. I would have to do some searching for it. I’ve been a natural medicine follower since about 1990. It has served me very well, so far. ALL preparations for natural remedies call for non aluminum pans, I’ve always assumed, for this reason.

    Of course, that average goes up when you drop a whole open tin on the floor. That’s a sad moment of self reflection when it happens…😆
