      ah, a snuss.

      I was chewing those bandit things in the 90s. theres been a resurgence yes… specifically the non tobacco ones that are some kind of biomass with nicotine sprayed on it. the bioavailability of those ones is nutzo compared to natural tobacco. they hit you all at once. less/no cancer risk though

        It’s similar to snus, but snus is actually made of tobacco. A nicotine pouch doesn’t have any tobacco in it, just nicotine that’s been extracted from tobacco. And presumably some kind of filler.

        Edit: you already said half of that, I can’t read

        The point here is that I cant buy swedish snus around here very easily, the state taxes the shit out of it, and I’m unhappy about it. Once upon a time you could just have it shipped to your door but no, importing has to be a pain in the dick now and anyhow they got rid of de minimis. I will join any revolution that has a plan to get me back my snus. Mango juul pods would be a great pot sweetener as well
