Warning labels on Swedish cans?

[Chiliphil1]

So, I got my first order from Sweden a few days ago and noticed large Swedish print on the back, I didn't really think anything of it until tonight when I translated it. The label says this tobacco product may damage your health and is addictive. I thought that they didn't put warnings on the cans in Sweden? Is this normal or just because it was shipped to the us?

Just a curiosity question.

That's the standard warning in Sweden, and is fairly accurate. I think they used to say it causes cancer, but those labels were removed due to lack of evidence.

Ah hah, I see I thought I remembered something about cancer labels being removed, makes sense now.

I don't think that anti-tobacco zealots in this country will be satisfied until all tobacco packaging is entirely covered in pictures of rotting corpses, in color, and in 3D.

It's the standard EU warning that is on all smokeless tobacco. The only one they can put on it as it's the only one that is true.
