[QUOTE="Carlos, post: 454, member: 7"] Cakes are interesting. The process C&D uses to make cakes like Pirate Kake and Bow Legged Bear are very nice. I like them. They are fairly hard and nice to break apart. Flakes on the other hand. Well. I try hard not to say anything really bad. A bit critical sometimes, but meant in the nicest possible way. The best flake I have had from them is Bayou Morning Flake. I like those thick cut chunks of tobacco. It's wondrous. These newer sliced flakes don't do much for me. They do not hold their shapes well. It's like they were not pressed very hard. They unravel too easy. So if they are going to be flakes that a good shake will rub out, leave well enough alone. I much prefer a coarse cut blend. Or cubes. I like cube cut real well. I am probably in the minority, but the cut of Fillmore is too thin. I can remember many times reading complaints of other Bobs having trouble with thick cut blends. I never have understood why. [/QUOTE]
