Camel makes some called snus, that are little pouches of tobacco that fit in your cheek. They aren't nearly as strong as snuff, so you don't have to spit the juice out while you have them in your mouth. Other companies also make flavored pouches of nicotine that can be used in the same manner. As long as people don't spit these things out on the floor when they're done with them, I don't see why they couldn't use them. No smoke, no juice, no problem.

ONLY if you have a strong stomach and are not currently eating.

All I can say is I hope that asshole never saw the end results of mouth cancer from Skoal, keeps it up and gets what he deserves. Quickly.

Earlier studies extrapolated data from dry snuff used by women in the south.

The largest study ever done includes over 100,000 Swedish men and followed them for a decade. Modern moist snuff maybe increases the risk of oral cancer by 2. Compared to smoking that has increases it 20 times.

The picture of the asshole frat boy who peaked in high school.

The people of NC’s 11th should be ashamed of themselves.

People claim it's harm reduction. They are little pouches. I bought some once when I was trying to quit, but never actually tried them.
