Shredded green leaf, like whole green leaf, needs to be yellowed, then dried, then aged. Some on HTGT have rolled a mega-burrito of green leaf, sliced it like a cabbage, then dashboard-cured it. I'm not sure why one would want to move tobacco through these phases in a gazillion tiny shreds.

I saw this video about 6 months ago, and I must say it's about the safest looking thing on the internet. LOL. I'm with y'all. I couldn't imagine the sticky mess and what a pain in the rump this would be to cure. Not to mention the clean up.

That is not for me. Enough work as it is, why make it harder than need be.
