VID is a Swedish chewing tobacco in White Slim format with the widest flavor choice in the range: eight varieties, from cola and watermelon to coffee caramel. The line comes in two levels, Medium and Strong.

| VID Medium Fresh Mint | Medium | Mint, clean and cool | approx. 12 mg |
| VID Medium Lemonade | Medium | citrus | approx. 12 mg |
| VID Medium Watermelon | Medium | Watermelon, sweet | approx. 12 mg |
| VID Medium Wild Cherry | Medium | Cherry, fruity-tart | approx. 12 mg |

| VID Strong Lemonade | Strong | citrus | approx. 20 mg |
| VID Strong Coffee Caramel | Strong | Coffee, caramel, roasted | approx. 20 mg |
Why VID cannot be compared directly
VID declares nicotine per pouch, while the other lines in the shop declare it per gram. These are two different reference units: 12 mg per pouch and 43 mg per gram cannot be set directly against each other, because that would require knowing the pouch weight — and the pouch sizes follow no standard.
In practice, this means: within VID, Strong is just under double Medium. For comparison with Siberia, Pablo or Skruf, the figure on the respective can is what counts.
Pouch and format
All eight varieties are White Chew Bags in Slim format: light-colored pouches, dry on the outside and slightly moist inside. That sets them apart from the fully dry White Dry pouches and from the Dry format of Pablo.
