      Lil Brown still has them in the dissolvable tobacco section.

      I tried Stonewall for a while a couple of years ago (pre-snus) and it did little in lessening the desire for me to have a smoke. It did take the edge off a bit and I did rather like the Java taste but it cannot be compared to snus. Maybe if the tabs were 8mg or more in nicotine they might have something. To be honest, one day I just didn't buy any more and never gave it a second thought. If you're curious I guess it's worth a try but I would take a snus portion over it any day.

        I have not had any Stonewall or Ariva. I will order some. I compared the price to Oliver twist and I think they would be cheaper than Twist.
        I have gottten good results from Twist and use them sometimes when I only want a little diversion for a short time.
        Yeah, I think I will order me some and some Apple Jack chew.

          Well I am going out tonight and get some Ariva's for the missus. She is having some medical stuff going on and the smoking helps calm her nerves a bit also makes her feel worse in many ways. I just happened to see the Ariva brand at my local CVS a few blocks away plus saw this post and think it is worth a shot. Haven't seen the Stonewall brand but she is an ultralight smoker so I am hoping the lower dosage will help. I brought up snus but she doesn't like the idea of it because of the dip stereotype in her head. I told her that isn't how snus is usually and she said I was wrong.....until I popped out a General Mint White portion I had in while we were talking about it all - should have seen her face!

            I still like Stonewall Java and Natural as an occasional change-up, but prefer snus for my all-day every-day tobacco enjoyment.

                The Star ruling sounds like kind of a mixed bag for snus lovers. Star was asking the FDA to let them market their smokeless products as "modified risk" tobacco products, which, it seems to me, would open the door to similar advertising for safer forms of smokeless like snus. But apparently the FDA punted by declaring the dissolvable tobacco products to not be "smokeless tobacco" products and thus exempt from the regulations governing "smokeless tobacco." That seems great for the future of dissolvable products like Stonewall, but doesn't do much to help snus since I can't see the FDA concluding that snus is not "smokeless tobacco."

                  Glad I had a pack of this sitting in my bag from a while back when I realized I left for work this morning and forgot my snus.

                    Looks like us folk in the UK can get them from Northerner's US warehouse. Not sure how long they've been doing this. But i'm going to order some Stonewall Java for occasional use.

                      Just picked up a pack of Stonewall Wintergreen at my local smoke shop to give them a try. Thought they might be nice at night or more comfortable when I'm out shopping Sure would like to try the java, but they didn't have them

                        Ok so i got some Java Stonewall... i quite like the way they dissolve though wish they were a bit stronger and not so damn sweet! Are the normal ones any less sweet?
