Super Value Cherry Cavendish

I bought this stuff because it said "all natural" and I wanted a bulk tobacco that was going to be mild and cool burning without any bite. This tobacco certainly lives up to the last 3 criteria, but I think they are lying about the "all natural" part. This stuff tastes and smells like it has chemicals added to it, like chemical preservatives or something like that. I suspect it is the same type of chemicals that they put in that Middleton's Prince Albert tobacco to keep it preserved. It gives it that sort of stale, cheap, after taste, after smell that is common with the drug store brands, and I'm pretty sure that it is the chemical preservatives that give it that flavor and smell. I gave this stuff a 4 star rating because they obviously engineered the hell out of it. This stuff is super smooth, with a perfect burn and a really good taste that is not too strong and not too mild. It smells great to everybody in the room. It smells great and tastes great, just like Middleton's pipe tobacco. But I promised myself a long time ago that I would only smoke all natural tobacco without any chemical additives because lets face it folks, that has got to be the healthiest way to smoke pipe tobacco. You've got to wonder if all those people getting mouth cancer and throat cancer and lung cancer are getting a prolonged overdose of chemical additives, not an over dose of all natural tobacco. Obviously there is some all natural tobacco included in this blend because there is no such thing as artificial tobacco, but I'm pretty damn sure that this stuff has chemical additives in it. And it's got so much damn nicotine in it that I would not be surprised if they fortified it with extra nicotine in order to try to get the poor old folks hooked on this stuff. They did a great job with the blend. They engineered the hell out of it. But there is no way in hell this stuff is 100% all natural tobacco with no chemicals added. I WISH THE GOVERNMENT WOULD MAKE THEM LIST THE INGREDIENTS
