Trying very first snus now (and yes, I'm a female)

[TropicalBob]

Natural Stonewall is distasteful to me. The wintergreen is okay, but the java is exceptionally good.

True story: Star Scientific sent some samples to my newspaper back in 2004. I tried it. Liked it. No one else took to the product, so I got lots of samples dumped on my desk.

I've used Stonewall daily since its beginning, when the press got those samples. I began weekly buying when my free samples ran out.

Of everything I do, its loss would be the hardest to take, athough I'm passionate about wanting my e-cigs and snus. My Stonewall pellets are my rock against returning to cigarettes. Tobacco candy for kids, my patootie!

At first only men smoked tobacco, then us women started using it and they came out with "sexy cigs", aka Virginia Slims just for the ladies. (Ever see a man with a VS? Nope!) We were happy. Now we've caught on to your snus too, so watch out...designer snus boxes in the purse section of your local Walmart are on the horizon, along with flavors like strawberry daquarie, Starbucks Mocha Frappacino, and Diet Pepsi!

Ok, one can hope, right?

Thanks Wild and Sheila! Unfortunately. I had made that first (and last!)
order from RYO before Sheila ever posted on here. Will definately be checking genuine out!

I get most of my supplies from my local tobacco shop. He has most of what I use, and even added ecigs after my inquiry back in January.

Thanks again!

The dissolvables and the snus are much easier to pack for on the road also!

Actually, I have seen 'men' with Virginia Slims. But they were carrying them in their bustier tops that they no doubt bought at Walmart...


Now I'm going to go pop in a Discreet Strawberry Snus and have a Diet Pepsi...

I'll be attending a high school graduation tonight. Boring. I will not be using my e-cig in that very public setting, but a snus or Stonewall will see me through until it's over and we all go out to eat.

That's why alternative choices are so important. A time and place for everything!

I've tried the Camel Snus that they handed out when I bought a pack of Camels. I like it, but want to try more.

I started to look online, but I get confused with all the brands and choices.

What would be a good recommendation to a starter. I'm looking for good flavor, and high enough nic to get me through a few hours.

That's the only type of men that would smoke them

Hey, I got a bunch of Discreet snus today...Tom seems pretty awesome and even called to see how I liked them. Love those strawberry ones myself!

Not sure if you'd want to keep the same piece in your mouth for a few hours, but from my limited useage (so far), I'd say the General Wintergreen White Portions might fit the bill. A ton of flavor and a pretty good nicotine amount (8mg per pouch).

I wish local places around here would carry all that stuff...but the only snus you can get in a store is the Camel. We're so deprived up here! :-)
