Unhappy American Snus isn't real

http://snuscentral.org/snusnus/mr-un...ted-part2.html

It would appear that new brands of American Snus like Marlboro and Camel aren't actually what we typically think of as 'snus.' They do not live up to Swedish health standards at all. They're just named Snus to trick you into thinking it's safe. It's actually just snuff packaged in bags and sold as Snus because it's just the swedish word for snuff, not exclusively used for the less carcinogenic product. What a shame. The Camel Snus: Frost was pretty good too, and swim doesn't have a credit card or a bank account to order the real shit online. So, swim will keep smoking his cigarettes till he can get a hold of a safer product.

Re: American Snus isn't real

Camel snus is actually pretty good. Can't compare to the swedish stuff but it's not bad for something you can pick up at any gas station.

Re: American Snus isn't real

I have a $2 off coupon for camel snus. It doesn't give me the slightest nicotine buzz though... =[

Re: American Snus isn't real

im actually a fan of camel snus..regardless of it being or not being an affiliate of the swedish snus. anyways, they helped me quit smoking for good (it was hard trying to be a runner and a smoker at the same time) but i can still get my nicotine fix. youre right, it doesnt hit like a cigarette but it still chills me out.

Re: American Snus isn't real

I could never find actual proof stating that those things have poor nicotine delivery, and honestly, it made me a bit hesitant to actually try 'real' snus. So thank you. That was very informative.
