Toque Snuff Limited – FDA Warning Letter

The FDA's Center for Tobacco Products issued a Warning Letter to Toque Snuff Limited after reviewing their website, http://www.toquesnuff.com, which offers smokeless tobacco products for sale in the U.S. The FDA determined these products are tobacco products under the FD&C Act.

The company is cited for two primary violations: 1. **Sales to Minors:** The website sold smokeless tobacco products (Berwick Brown 10g Tin and Vanilla Bullet snuff) to a person under 18, violating 21 C.F.R. § 1140.14(a). This renders the products misbranded under section 903(a)(7)(B) of the FD&C Act. 2. **Lack of Health Warning Statements:** Numerous smokeless tobacco products offered on the website, including various "Bullet" flavors, do not display any required health warning statements. This violates Section 3(b) of the Comprehensive Smokeless Tobacco Health Education Act of 1986 (15 U.S.C. § 4402) and causes the products to be misbranded under sections 903(a)(1) and/or 903(a)(7)(A) of the FD&C Act. The letter also notes the requirement for quarterly rotation of warning statements.

The FDA demands immediate corrective actions for these and similar
