I recently got two five-can rolls of General Los from a popular online Snus site. I've a fairly new Snus-er, but I've gone through 4 cans of this before this recent order. When I opened the first can I was surprised to find the characteristic aroma of the first four cans, which were purchased from a different seller, was completely absent. I just tried out a second can, but it's the same. The stuff I now have has virtually no flavor either.
You'd think that maybe it went bad, but I can't taste any salt in it either, and salt doesn't deteriorate to the best of my knowledge. Furthermore, it's extemely moist, and bakes into a very solid hand made pris in less than 30 seconds. The first batch I had was drier. But it's just like a wad of nothing in my mouth. I should add that the strangest sensation is that less than five minutes after inserting a medium sized pris, I have about the worst case of cotton mouth I've ever had (about 6 times now). I've had expired white portions that made me salivate; even drinking doesn't help, it seems to stop my salivary glands and takes about 1/2 hour after removal before they're back to normal. The expiration date on all the cans is 1/26/10 so it's not expired.
Any ideas about what's going on? I have five other varieties at present, including three types of General Portions, and am enjoying them all, except for this one. Has anyone ever gotten a completely "off" batch of something?
