Chewing tobacco is traditionally sold loose and in metal cans. It wasn't until the 1970s, with increasing popularity, that the now well-known pouches (bags) were introduced. These simplify the transport and application of chewing tobacco, as it does not have 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 in 2003 the White Portion was introduced for the first time. With this, the tobacco-based content is packaged in dry pouches. Caution, with the White Portion there is a risk of confusion with the “All White” Portion Snus. All White products contain nicotine, but no tobacco.
How does White Portion differ from loose chewing tobacco and Original Portion?
Loose chewing tobacco uses ground tobacco leaves, which are moistened after mixing with water, salt and flavors and packaged in cans. The Original Portion, in contrast, is packaged in pouches, which are slightly moistened after production.
With the White Portion, the manufacturing process is different, as the tobacco is packaged in dry pouches, but the content is slightly moist. This ensures that the tobacco contained drips less when consumed. With the White Dry Portion, both the pouches and the content are even drier.
New chewing tobacco varieties also include the All White Portion, where the nicotine is 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 staining after years of use. These products are perfect for smoking cessation, especially for people who have not had success with nicotine patches and the like.
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 packaged in pouches. The pouches are made of a tougher material so that they can be chewed better and longer. With White Portion chewing tobacco, the pouches are very thin and are not chewed when consumed, but placed under the upper lip.
