    Of course they do. They tried steel shavings for a while, but those would rust in the tin, so they went back to the fiberglass.

            In Finland the snus intentioned word is called "Nuuska".
            It generally includes also at least chew and dip and all what looks like snuff. I think in sweden the word snus has also same intention, but it can be meaning of the Swedish snus also.

              For those that have asked for more info, I was able to speak with an RJR guy today and got a little more info about it.

              Camel Dip is produced by American Snuff (formerly Conwood), which switched names as of January 2010. They produce, manufacture, and market Camel Dip. The name is used with agreement with RJR, and RJR approved the recipes and finalized product and packaging.

              The recipe is that of American Snuff, but it was approved by RJR. The Wintergreen recipe is not in resemblance to Winterchill Camel "SNUS". These recipes are new recipes for this particular product, not rehashed old recipes.

              In July 2009, it was launched in CO and FL as Wintergreen (Wide-Cut) and the Dark Milled. In March 2010 it expanded into 10 more areas - Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Vermont, Nevada, Wyoming, Idaho, California, Washington, and Oregon. At this time, the pouches were added in the teabag material, 18 per tin.

              There isn't much talk about nationwide expansion, it's still up in the air, but the test runs and expansion are doing well, and the product has been well received.

              The "Wide-Cut" is simply a wider long cut, and it was received well by dip users, including long cut users, and I believe this is the first wide cut style to be released. Each tin is metal, but also inside each metal tin is a traditional plastic cup, which will keep the dip fresh and moist. The metal tin is designed to reflect the premium nature of Camel Dip.


              I believe this answered the questions I had, and the various ones I had emailed to me and such. Hope it helps you dip guys.

                Thank you for the confirmation of fiberglass. I'll be staying clear of this one.

                  Sheesh, it figures. I moved to Oklahoma from New Mexico, and now they've got Camel Dip in New Mexico and not here. *LOL*

                  Seriously though, I'd love to see how the Wintergreen tastes, since it's an RJR/American Snuff product and so is Grizzly, my preferred brand of dip. That, and the fact that those "all-metal" cans look so cool.

                    I'll be getting some samples soon, and as I'm not a dip guy I'll send a few cans your way, since that's kinda your thing.

                        Sure, I get it, want to stay off the ol' Cope habit, want to convince yourself that dip is nasty, all fine and dandy. Hell, dip is sort of nasty, and probably pretty bad for you. That's why I don't do it. But HOLY GOD, WHY OH WHY do you insist upon this fiberglass nonsense? Do you usually believe in things that are demonstrably false because you like the idea of them?

                        there IS. NO. FIBERGLASS. IN. DIP.

                        1. It would inhibit nicotine absorption.

                        2. It would literally cause bleeding.

                        3. It's too expensive to put in a product at that price point!

                            Yea, as the saying goes. "Don't get all hard on me peter, I'm only playing with ya".

                            Sorry for spreading mis-information. Most know when I'm joking on here which seems to be 95% of my posts these days. :lol:

                            The fiberglass dig is aimed at Liandri. I inadvertently posted an article back in my early days on here which I didn't proof read and it contained the ole' famous fiberglass myth. And he dry-humped me like a french whore in the gutter over it. So I made it into a funny.

                            SOrry - forgive me?
