How does a bidi taste like..... the wrapper looks kinda tobacco leaf, is it? Must taste something like a cigar........

The Indian economic story is finished, i'm thinking about revoking my Bangladeshi citizenship. You baniyas can't sell 'bidi' to any foreign nation, and thinking about becoming a super power?

LOL,in one year or one month??

No accurate figures are available about the extent of bidi imports from India but estimates by an international trade group in the 1990s put import from India at 448 million pieces valued at less than $5 million.

They come in flavors as well. Lol
Over the last decade, bidis also began to appear in various all-American, candy-like flavors: chocolate, vanilla and strawberry, adding newer flavors such as grape, cinnamon, watermelon, menthol, black licorice, wild cherry, and mandarin orange, as the craze caught on

I belive they would have been banned a while ago as the article was refering to a 2002 survey.though the firm that produced the product was banned few days back.
