Fairfax County General :
Fairfax Underground
Welcome to Fairfax Underground, a project site designed to improve communication among residents of Fairfax County, VA. Feel free to post anything Northern Virginia residents would find interesting.
Originated in Sweden, where it means "snuff."
Snus, which comes in individual tea bag-like pouches, is traditionally often tucked under the upper lip, unlike most American smokeless tobacco.
Because it is under the upper lip, snus produces less saliva and is considered "spitless."
Nicotine levels vary in snus. Camel snus is reported to have about as much nicotine as a cigarette.
Cost at Sheetz is $3.99 per tin.
It's tobacco -- that's it. Nothing like Spice, Bath Salts or K2. As long as they are 18, nothing wrong with or illegal about it.

At least they put it under their lip; I assumed kids would snort the product.
When these kids get mouth cancer, esophogas cancer or other health problems from doing this shiT- I hope that they can go after Camel for targeting tweens!

Snuff (the tobacco you sort of snort) has been around since before the industrial revolution. It's really really not new at all.
Snus isn't like that at all. You put it under your upper lip and it doesn't create excess silva. Snus is less carcinogenic than cigarettes or dip and contains less nicotine.
"Hi, I'm a retarded soccer mom, I'm scared of everything I don't know about. I saw some kids chewing tobacco, is that sort of like bath salts, heroin, pcp, or fake weed?"
durrrr durrr stupid bitch, get back in your kitchen where you can stay completely out of touch with the rest of the world.

Yup. I quit when I left the Corps. Was about a can of Cope/day habit.
FBO, you ever heard Chris Ledoux's Copenhagen song? That's some funny shit if you haven't. Yeah, that shit is seriously addictive, done that too, although I was a Skoal pussy. LOL

Ive heard that it was in the recipe back in the day. It was part of the process of making dip and the chemical was left in to promote cell decomposition, allowing more of it to hit the blood stream.
Supposedly this was all back in the day before the industry was regulated.

Kodiak is mostly grass and dirt, doubt there is much tobacco or fiberglass in that crap
So, this is like chewing tobacco; but you don't have to spit continuously!
I recommend crest white strips to those that use any type of SNUS. It will stain your teeth.

Stains teeth as much as soda and coffee and cigarettes. Does some damage to your gums though, so if you don't like bleedy gums you gotta brush and floss well.

Maybe it was the grass that gave me the buzz then. That and double tapping with a Mountain Dew right after, I was awake for hours. Really awake LOL
