Chewing tobacco is traditionally sold loose and in metal tins. Only with increasing popularity in the 1970s were the now well-known pouches introduced. These simplify the transport and use of chewing tobacco because it no longer needs to be portioned with the fingers. In this country, this type of chewing tobacco is known as portion chewing tobacco; in its home country Sweden, they are called ‘prilla’ or simply ‘portion’.
The chewing tobacco market is constantly evolving, and the White Portion was introduced for the first time in 2003. In this, the tobacco-based content is packaged in dry pouches. Attention, with the White Portion there is a risk of confusion with the “All White” Portion. The All White products do contain nicotine but no tobacco at all.
How does the White Portion differ from loose chewing tobacco and Original Portion?
Loose chewing tobacco uses ground tobacco leaves, which are moistened with water, salt, and flavors after mixing and packaged in cans. The Original Portion is, in contrast, is packaged in pouches, which slightly moistened after production are.
In the case of White Portion the manufacturing process is different because the tobacco is dry pouch is packaged is, the contents, however, slightly moist is. This ensures that the contained tobacco runs less during consumption. In the case of White Dry Portion are both the pouches as well as the contents are even drier.
Among the new chewing tobacco varieties also includes the All White portion, in which the nicotine either added to the pouches in the form of salt or in liquid form. They are completely tobacco-free and there is less risk of teeth discoloration after years of use. These products are perfect for Smoking cessation, especially for people for whom nicotine patches and similar products were not successful.
What is the difference between White Portion and chewing tobacco?
It is often assumed that White Portion chewing tobacco and chewing tobacco are the same product, but this is not true. Both variants are sold in small portion pouches and the flavors and additional substances are also the same. The difference lies, among other things, in the size of the tobacco leaves and in the application.
Chewing tobacco consists of larger tobacco leaves that are cut and packed in pouches. The pouches are made of a tougher material so they can be chewed better and longer. In White Portion chewing tobacco, the pouches are very thin and are not chewed during use but placed under the upper lip.
