Never touched the stuff so i had no idea they came in flavors and there is black market variant. Quite informative.
Yeah, for the past couple of years there were tons of flavours. Now this year all flavours except like "painful peppermint" and other minty things are the only "flavour" allowed on them.
In Finland. forgot to write that
Dk what the "black market variant" is i was too lazy to read.
Probably any flavor other than "painful peppermint"
Yeah, one could assume so, if there are still countries where it's easy to import them from but idk. We probably just default back to regular snus since Sweden is so near and we can get snus from cruises that sail between Swe and Fi
