Do they make Skoal flavor?
Here in the Philly area there is a convenience store called Wawa. They have seeds packaged under their name. I like them better than the name brands.
Trader Joe's brand is the best I've ever had though.

SPITZ! Anything made by Spitz. I like the Regular, Seasoned, and Dill Pickle. But they're all good.
David's BBQ flavor = the best
David's Dill Pickle
My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

No, but if you can find someone who dips you can have him or her fill up this device and then you can add your own favorite brand of seeds and let
'em soak up all of the second hand Skoal® essence they can handle.
You'll be spittin' 'em far papi!

Spitz, of course. Dill Pickle is the best I've had to date. Might place an order in bulk for the end of the season 
Gotta be David's. Jalepeno & BBQ.
We all need to find one not made by the faceless conglomerate, Conagra. I'm hearing seeds by the name of Bigs are actually the best. OK, I know, they have lots of brands of different snacks too, so they are a conglomerate wannabe.
And unlike Davids, they come in resealable bags so they don't spill out into your gear bag and you then don't have to dust off the ones that get trapped in the corner of your gear bag, near your cleats, before eating them.

Frito Lay Ranch. Taste like cool ranch Doritos.
Bigs Ranch and Davids Buffalo Ranch come in a close 2nd.

Ill definately second that! You got to try their Sizzlin' Bacon flavor.
Spitz's Spicy and David's Dill Pickle.
Spitz black pepper for me
The kids on my little league team go through about 20 pounds of sugar and cinnamon (Gerb's) per season. The parents seem to like the smoked garlic (Smokin' Hot Nuts). My personal favorite is coconut (Cha Cha).
Definitely Spitz cracked black pepper for me
I've found a company by the name of "Giants" who sells the jumbo seeds. I've had their Dill Pickle and their KC-Style BBQ Jumbos and they were both good! It's too bad it took me until the last week of the season to find them 
Here is a partial list (off the top of my head) of brands that I have purchased in the past. I have a complete list somewhere, and if I find it, I will post any others at a later date. If anyone knows of any others please post them as I am always willing to try different manufacturers.
Davids
Bigs
Giants
Spitz
Frito-Lay
Zotes
Interstate Bait
Krispy Kernels
JR's
Rock Starz
Zips
Sumseeds
Gerbs
Dakota Kid
Cha Cha
Smokin Hot Nuts (my favorite)
My guys go through Bigs Dill Pickle like crazy! Gotta buy the pounder size bags!

Of the many brands of that make a Dill Pickle seed, I agree that the Vlasic flavor from Bigs is the best. The Sizzlin Bacon are also very addictive.
I went crazy this morning and had some pistachios.........
Chinook Seedery Hatch Green Chili Flavor. New brand. SOO good.

Dill Pickle for sure!

Forgot about those. Those are awesome!
Spitz salted caramel. I know, I know but don't knock em til you try em.
Anybody ever tried these Sumseeds with caffeine?
I tried the Sumseeds several years ago because Tony Gwynn's picture was on the bag. The Honey Barbeque were OK tastewise but the whole caffeine thing went un-noticed. BTW, I didn't give these to my baseball players because kids don't need the extra caffeine. This year the little leaguers seem to like the salted caramel the best. I think because they are new. I suspect the cinnamon and sugar will win out again in the long run. For the adults, the smoked garlic from "Smokin Hot Nuts" seem to be the favorite again.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't remember having flavor choices when I played. Of course, I was in Texas where seeds took a back seat to dip even with young kids. I coached a T-ball age team as a senior in high school and half that team was dipping Happy Days (a precurser to Skoal) at the age of six. Crazy to think of today.

Yes I remember those days in Texas. My dad actually grinded up beef jerky and put it in a cleaned out skoal can. At 10 years old I thought I was the cooliest kid at the fields. As for sunflower seeds, I go with Davids and a cold coke
