Camel Snus is where it's at for me this winter.
I've lost like 60 pounds since last May, maybe 70 if you include the 10 I gained over Thanksgiving/Xmas.
Went outside for a cig a little while ago and I'm still shaking and freezing.
Camel Snus -> Nicorette Lozenges -> Quit.
I can't do this anymore.

it depends on what you mean by snuff. there's the snuff that you literally snort, then there's snus/dip that you let sit between lip and gum. chew is different from snus/dip.

If you want to get into nicotine for quitting assistance, go for patches.
If you wanmt to smokew without smoking, go for e-cigarettes
If you want to enjoy tobacco without smoking and actually catch a nicotine buzz, Snus is what you need. Snus very likely is the least unhealthy tobacco product by virtue of a far healthier curing process and a far healthier way of consuming than smoking is (its held under the side of your upper lip, no chewing, no spitting. If you want to go for snus, do yourself a big favor and buy an original Swedish/Norwegian brand, not an American brand - in the US there is no snus tradition and no discriminating user base to warrant a top notch product. read up

It seems so crazy to me that it's banned in the EU. That kind of nonsense is right up there with the US banning cloves and flavored tobacco.

yeah, chew is big cuts often sold in bags and you literally chew and keep in your cheek. dip is really fine cut that you just store between lip and gum.

Its complete nonsense for the EU to ban snus.
Snus is the only tobacco product that had the warning "may cause cancer" removed from it based on scientific evidence.
You are not spitting and not blowing smoke in peoples faces, nor are you seen snorting brown powders which people may take offense to.
It has a lot of nicotine so its not healthy for you, but its undiluted madness to prohibit it while collecting taxes on cigarettes.
Its tobacco for cripes sake. Needless to say I spit a snus bag in the face of EU legislation and do my thing regardless.

i don't think i understand the process of using snus. there's no spitting? do you just swallow the nasty brown saliva that forms? whilst dipping, you've gotta spit it out or else you'll puke.

You know I'm fucked up if I pull out the Snus. I used to chew/dip but Snus is much more enjoyable. I've been told you don't have to spit but I still do

It's held high up in your upper lip, so it doesn't come into contact with your spit if done properly.
