Snus? Snuff?

Snus is this whacky bagged dip that is popular in Sweden. Sweden has a very low number of smokers...b/c everyone is using snus instead. They say it's "less unhealthful" than smoking.

It's not snuff, at least not in the traditional sense that snuff is inhaled.

Same here! It was hard enough quitting once that I don't want to go through it again.

Smoke. Chewing is nasty.

Well, so is smoking, but chewing moreso.

What's the difference between chew and snuff?

I'd do that gum I see at Costco "nicorette" since I love chewing gum. I chew a 15 piece of Extra everyday.

Quit smoking. Asthma and smoking are a fvcking stupid combination. It's alot more acceptable to those around me with a half dip in my cheek. Nobody can tell and I can get my nic fix anywhere I go. :) My clothes and the air around me doesn't smell horrible (if I've showered ;) :p) and it looks quite a bit better without a cig hanging off my lip.

Why do you have to choose? Go hit the local HS track tomorrow morning lap it eight times and you wont wanna do that stuff. Even if you eat wrong you'll hurl it up let alone put poisons into your body.
