    You people with your nasal snuff

    AllCoExPat : Ebay. It looked exactly like this one: Rare Chinese ox bone Snuff Bottle&kid - eBay (item 140480868932 end time Nov-25-10 17:01:40 PST) anf the price was low, some USD 10 or so. The spoon protrudes from the lid.

    You people with your nasal snuff

    Poschl snuff is so oily and sticky, it carries minimum risk of "brain hit". It makes my nose runny, though. I had problems with Toque, which does not cause the problems of Poschl oils, but then I bought a cheap Chinese carved bone snuff bottle with little spoon and that works miracles of...

    Close to expired snus? CHEAP from getsnus!!

    I bought quite a few "Short expiry date" ones from Northerner. I placed them in freezer immediately and only remove the few portions I intend to use on that day, more or less. They expired in the meantime. The snus works fine, the only problem seem to be that in half (or almost) empty cans the...

    Snus - the best and the worst

    Best: Jakobsson's Icefruit OP - only 2 cans for now, using it for special treats because of the special cooling taste and interesting flavor Gotland Fläder (green) OP - under my lip now & most often, don´t really know why, just a go-to snus, maybe because it leaks less than the rest and lasts...

    SNUS - Is NOT a Safe Alternative to Smoking

    My health warnings come in Swedish. It is a beautiful language which I cannot understand, so they can write whatever nonsense the EU Kommissars require this month... :D

    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    Hittman: I think it is lemongrass. Very fragrant, otherwise it would be similar to General, but less spicy. After the taste wanes off, 30-40 minutes, it is quite salty, and runny. Not a snus I would keep in for hour or more. But still, the beautiful smell attracts me more than General, Lemon...

    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    I am snusing Gotland Green at the moment. Got it as promotion when buying General and somehow I like it more at the moment. Really worth a try. Bit drier, but very nice taste.

    Help me read this, please.

    Thank you, Madame Psychosis, that was exactly the clarification I was trying to get. Mordred: I think the strenght would be rather similar to a smokeless user here. Like with smokers - they consume rather similar amounts of nicotine all over the world. I think there is something like an...

    Help me read this, please.

    I found a rather rare study of snuff (presumably, India is great on snuff) and blood pressure, but the numbers do not really support the claims. Maybe I am reading them wrong? Or does ST really increase your BP by 4 (four! Peanuts!) points only? I mean, this is not an issue. Four points. Ha! Any...

    Hi, nice to meet you. I'm the flu.

    you cannot avoid airborne virus by not touching hands. Unless they frenchkiss you, normal touching is much less a risk than saying "hello" and releasing a swarm of the virus straight into the face of the victim.

    End of story?

    I forgot to mention my hair went half gray during the last 6 months. Really. More prominently on face for some reason. With a beard I look like... old. They might give the warning to quitters: Cold turkey might cause premature aging of your facial hair :D

    End of story?

    "At or around this time, we made a healthy, informed, democratic decision to get back on drugs as soon as possible. It took about twelve hours." Hello. The older-timers know me, for the new Vapers: I used to be here, vape and enjoy life without smoking, but then early this year my health...

    Nicotine Buzz - fact or fiction

    People who never smoked but used snus or other forms of tobacco also talk of initial buzz. I believe the problem of not having one is drug tolerance, not anything specific to cigarettes. Easy way to check: Lay off the drug for as long as you can manage. Like one day or at least a long night and...
