    Warning labels on snus mandatory?

    My try out box from Northerner.com arrived today! The site says its a random collection of snus, so here's what I got:

    Thunder Xtreme Berry blend (pouches)
    Thunder Xtreme Frosted (pouches)
    Thunder Xtreme Wintergreen (pouches)
    Original Olde Viking portions
    Offroad Frosted portions
    Ettan vit portions
    General Original portions
    Catch White licorice (I think portion?)
    Rothbrix Blue loose
    Jakobsson's Wintergreen portion
    And a strange skinny can from Northerner called Gourmet Wine & Dine

    Kind of curious, there are so many mouth cancer warning stickers slapped onto all the cans, I had a little trouble reading the labels! Is that required when they import the snus here? It doesn't look like they were originally on the cans, except maybe the Thunder cans. Seems a little overdone as well, I don't even recall American dip cans having so many warnings.

    On another note, gonna try the Jakobsson's first, it smells similar to Cope Wintergreen, just hope it doesn't have me running to the bathroom.

    The warning labels are an American thing thanks to the jack booted thugs in the FDA. Orders from Sweden don't have them.

    You got some good random snus. Jak's Wintergreen is one of my favorites along with the General OP.

    Oh, and welcome to the peanut gallery called snuson.

        The warning labels for snus and dip are the same

        http://www.fda.gov/syn/html/ucm2023662

        The newer labels started in June of 2010 and are bigger then the old labels.
