We can't have kids getting addicted to these stupid pouches. We need to get these kids back on cigarettes, like real men.

They're making artificial snus now? Gross.

Nic pouches have been around for a decade or so now.

[โ€“] Dasus@lemmy.world 1 points 15 hours ago

Actually less gross than actual snus.

Never touched the stuff so i had no idea they came in flavors and there is black market variant. Quite informative.

[โ€“] Dasus@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

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.

[โ€“] reev@sh.itjust.works 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Probably any flavor other than "painful peppermint"

[โ€“] Dasus@lemmy.world 1 points 14 hours ago

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
