    What Happened to Thunder?

    I’m still working on my cart for my next order (lots of Skruf Los lol) but there is no Thunder Frosted. I loved the minis they did…I know v2 was bought by Swedish Match, which was bought by Phillip Morris. Where did Thunder die in all of that?

    I see the Offroad frosted, but is it good?

    I have a few rolls of thunder chrome coffee snus to part with. Vacumn sealed and frozen. Its discontinued but is good as new. I'm still using the offroard coffee/vanilla of the same vintage and it just like new. Its amazing how well snus keeps when stored properly. It will be a very decent price. 3 to 6 rolls available.
    Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I killed because they were annoying......





    I've been wrong lots of times.  Lots of times I've thought I was wrong only to find out that I was right in the beginning.

      I’m kind of a Thunder frosted slut. Well I was. Especially those minis. Those things were the bees knees. The flavor was good. They were 8 mg of portion. Comfortable and tiny… just like my ex-wife used to tell me.

      Are those coffee chrome regular strength?

        They are 12mg, too much for me with my heart issues. Actually I should stop using tobacco....but I switched to 4mg snus.

          That’s a little strong for me these days. I grabbed the Norrland Stark and they are a bit much for me at 13. Thought I could handle it but I have to be intentional with them, but I should have gotten the regular strength. I’m planning to keep it under 10mg/g from here on out, no sense in playing with fire and increasing tolerance as I get older.

            thats a good idea mate. Keep the nic as low as you can and still enjoy the snus

              It was easy for me going from starks/sterks to regulars way back when but I don’t know what it would be like to go down to tobacco snus minis.

                OK, heres the thing.........there are all these new brands/flavors of white portions on the market now. Hundreds of them. They have no tobacco but most are low in nic and 90%, it seems, are very flavorful for long time. Makes me wonder if they really are targeting a younger user. I liked real tobacco snus but I had to lower my nic intake so I HAD to start trying the white snus. What I found after I found one I liked was that hey these are really pretty good.....low nic, no more yellow teeth, not at all noticeable when in use, and the flavor of the Helwit lasts as long as you want. I have never tossed out a portion because it lost its flavor, they last for hours like 4 or 5 hours or more [I guess, usually I have to remove a portion to eat dinner or whatever]. That being said The portion is there releasing flavor and because of habit you don't think about spitting it out so you are satisfying the habit of just having a portion in place. Thats half the issue resolved. Now since it lasts for hours you would be using less portions hence ingesting LESS nic just by that fact. Then they are already low nic to begin with. The habit of having one in and a great long lasting flavor you body will adjust to lower nic quicker than you can imagine. Did I miss anything? I hope this makes sense

                I hardly even like the ving 99 or the offroad coffee/vanilla anymore and thats all I used in my snus career. Thats amazing. I love the Helwit Mocha. Try a few different whites, see what you like.

                  I’ve tried some American whites and the uptake is super fast, I think because they are just nicotine salts without the fiber. Got a tin or two of Helwit on my next order (well, in the cart before I pull the trigger) to try and see how they make me feel.
