RECALL ON SMOKELESS TOBACCO

RECALL ON SMOKELESS TOBACCO - 02/02/17 08:24 PM

I am a heavy dipper and just thought it was appropriate to post this. It pertains to Copenhagen, Skoal and a few off brands and is only associated with the products that are manufactured at one plant.
On the back side of the can at the bottom there is an item code which relates to this plant. The first letter in the code is one of the following: F, R, K or P. The recall says do not open or use. It is a voluntary recall. If you have questions go to their website.

Thanks for the info. Mine starts with VE, so should be good.

What's up with changing the color of the ink from black to white?? I can't see as well I as use to and this white ink on the bottom stinks.

I think it was a load of cow manure instead of tobacco leaves accidentally used in those cans listed...

Good thing they issued a recall. Not sure that anyone would've been able to tell the difference.

I heard they have metal shavings. Mainly the brands with plastic cans. I read it at the site. Suggest you read the recall if you bought them.
