Any other blokes out there who stuff their lips full of ground tobacco?

What brand do you use?

What sort? Original pouch? White pouch? Loose?

My favourite brands would be the following.

I don't use Snus - just smoke a bit, but sometimes when drunk and/or tired I tend to ask someone that does, to give me a 'bag'. Usually I regret it later, as the strong types pack a real punch and can make you dizzy if you're not used to it.

Bloody Swedes even make certain Snus for girls (with pink boxes!), and quite a lot of girls use it regularly.

Yeah, snus doesn't really pack a punch for long-time users, unless you've gone like a whole day without.

Also, it's true. Snus has for ever been considered a "guy thing" and still is. A lot of girls tend to not want to show that they use it. Some brands even make slim pouches that don't show at all.

Generally, I think I've seen... say five girls that smoke for every one I've seen use snus.

I wish there were a nice big barf mote.

For US members he's talking about Skoals etc.

Sorry for being negative, but I doubt you will find many fans.
Skoal etc is not comparable at all to actual Swedish snus, it's quite different.

I am not native for tobacco terminology but I seriously like snuff (tobacco powder?), specially British ( used to Willsons of Sharrow)

no smoking and chewing tobacco for me :cool:

I've only tried snuff once, strong stuff. Not sure I would use it in a long term basis but, hell must still beat smoking, right?

I gave snuff samples to many of my smoking acquaintances and they liked it and even used it in short breaks of smoking, but I doub't that it can be a placeholder of cigarette. I like snuff because of medical aspects it have: it's refreshing, opening nostrils - useful in hay fever, nose catarrh, after work in dust. Nice sneeze is sometimes a good thing :cool:

Apparently I didn't previously know that this is what snus was :/
Just the other day I heard somebody mention it and I coulda sworn they were talking about some computer-y thing.

Smokeless tobacco? Dear God man... have you seen the Oral Cancer wiki page? I hope you can shake this and don't get cancer.

I have never heard of anyone getting cancer from snus. Hell, I have never heard of any one dying at all from snus.
