yup :D if it helps me quit smoking. gonna order from sweden though.

I first discovered snus via a show on the History channel about tobacco. I decided to do some research online, as I had been looking for a way to get off cigarettes. After doing a lot of reading on the product, and the low TSNA levels in snus, I decided to give it a try. So, I ordered a roll of the mix from buysnus.com, and counted the days till it came.

I was pleasantly surprised at the taste, and nicotine hit of this fine Swedish secret. Plus, there was the bonus of no longer craving a cigarette. Now, my dad has been a smoker since he was about 15, he is now 61. Ever since a heart-attack 10 years ago, he has been struggling with his pack-a-day habit. He has tried everything from nicotine gum, to the patch, even drug therapy, but nothing seemed to work. So, once I had been off smoking for about a week, I decided to tell him about snus. We have now both been smoke-free for over eight months, and both feel much healthier.

This may not be a story about a night at a bar with a can of snus and the crazy time that ensued, but it means a lot to me to know that my Dad is healthier.

I have been smoking for 25 years, although I once quit for 10 years. I started up after those 10 years because of the stresses of my job. Of course, the cigarettes did not do much for the stress, they only made me feel that I was in control of the stress. I was a reluctant smoker, and I made a number of attempts to quit cigarettes, never successful. I used nicotine gum, but it did just not give me the satisfaction that cigarettes did.

However, one day while surfing the web, I came across an article on a mental health site, schizophrenia.com. The article was about smoking and mental illness and what could be used as a "harm reduction" product instead of cigarettes. They mentioned snus as such a product, so I promptly did a Google search for "snus" and I came upon the BuySnus website. I was excited when I saw all the products offered for sale, so I just read the descriptions of the different snus products, and I selected 5 different tins of snus.

Well, after much anticipation, my package of snus arrived. I must say I fondled the cans and tried to make a decision as to which one I should try first. I settled on General portion. What an experience! I positioned the portion in my upper lip and let the mouth juices penetrate it and I had a fine snussing session. I was elated - I could finally enjoy tobacco without smoking it! Over the coming days, I tried a number of different snus, and it just reinforced my desire to quit smoking and snus instead. I quit smoking about three days after I tried snus.

It's been three months now that I have quit cigarettes, and I don't miss them at all. I enjoy snus so much that returning to cigarettes is not even an option.

I am a member of the "SnusOn" internet forum, and we offer encouragement to each other when one of us is quitting smoking. I find this support to be most helpful. We all have different stories to tell, but our objective is the same - quit the cigs for snus.

Well, there's a lot of of snus products left to try, and I look forward to trying them out over the coming months.

just had my first marlboro snus.

they cost about the same as cigarettes (this pack was free) and they say on the package they last twice as long as a cigarette. there are 12 in a pack.

so, i had one and when the flavor was gone i went outside to the deck and smoked a cigarette :mj07:

Jack, I can't believe you're falling for this.... you may save your lungs but you'd be setting yourself up for the greater potential of mouth cancer. I don't think you'd be very handsome if you had to have the surgeries this guy had:

By the way it is pronounced like "noose".... hmm?

Sadly, Jack, the end result is the same.

Facts About Oral Cancer - Incidence and Mortality

Oral cancer strikes an estimated 34,360 Americans each year. An estimated 7,550 people (5,180 men and 2,370 women) will die of these cancers in 2007.

More than 25% of the 30,000 Americans who get oral cancer will die of the disease.

On average, only half of those diagnosed with the disease will survive more than five years.

African-Americans are especially vulnerable; the incidence rate is 1/3 higher than whites and the mortality rate is almost twice as high.
