    lol...do i need to bring the frog between you two. I swear to god i'll do it!



    I think that might have to be my thing anytime a fight breaks out now. I will bring down the frog upon you! Really any Muppet material will bring a comforting feeling I think.

    P.S. yes I am really a 5 year old boy in a 25 year old man's body

          That's not true anymore. There are many many IQF foods that are just as delicious as fresh. And I have seen world renowned chef's use frozen foods.

            I don't know about you but I would find it criminal to freeze any exquisite dish made by the glamorous Chef Boyardee!! CRIMINAL I tell ya! :lol: :lol:

            In all seriousness though, I believe in Swedish Match and V2. If you do not want to freeze your shiznit, then you do not have to because you have the right to do what you wish.

            I believe this is the best time for Voltaire:

            "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it"

              You're joking, aren't you?

              It may work sufficiently with meat, but not with any vegetables. Freezing kills vegetables, no chance anymore for any natural preservation against decay, otherwise provided by living cells, also ice-crystals demolish the cell-walls, which inevitably leads to taste-changes (that may be different with IQF foods but I doubt that).

              Speaking about snus, freezing will surely lead to a lower ability of the snus to keep it's moisture or in other words: thawed snus surely must be consumed more quickly than refrigerated snus, once the can is opened. I think it's better to order snus in normal quantities and keep it in the fridge. Freezing certainly does not serve the purpose to make the snus better, it only extends the shelf-life.

              Frozen food isn't unhealthy or a totally bad idea, but overall I think that this preservation-method serves the electrical power suppliers more than anyone else.

              Just read the Wikipedia-article about frozen food, it only tells a fraction of the truth and already is ugly enough to read. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frozen_food

              Nonetheless, I have a freezer and I even use it, but rarely and not for snus. It's just my personal preference. Frozen food sometimes is very near in taste to fresh food but for me there's also always something in the taste that just seems wrong. As I said, I'm no gourmet (I'm not even picky) and frozen snus certainly doesn't taste bad, but I generally wouldn't freeze anything unless I have no other viable choice.

              Cheers!

                    I just placed a dummy order with Northerner. On previous orders I received in the last three weeks or so, I would have sworn that the postage option was Swedish post, but now it only gives a Swiss post option. This is to Europe, so may be different for you US based people. Am I right in thinking previous ones were Swedish post, and recently they have changed to Swiss post?

                      Yes, they switched recently. I am assuming the Swiss Post is a cheaper option for them.
