Spitting ?

[pipes]

I hear you folks say you don't like American moist dip because of the spitting ! I gotta say maybe its just me but I been dipping for yrs and never spit with dip now chew is another story . Never tried any of this Snus . But in my 40+ yrs of tobacco use I am open to anything tobacco so I guess I will have to hunt some up .

Maybe when I was real young and doing dip I may of spit but that was way to long ago to remeber . My mouth dries up a lot while dipping and I have to have a coffee or somthing when I dip if posible .

Thats another thing I see on here folks saying they can't dip and drink ! Why not ? Unless I move it my dip stays put were I put it between my lowere cheek and gum .

Iam just curious about the above not being critical .

I require a beverage with almost every snus. The exceptions are on my scooter when my mouth is kinda dry (ie had a few drinks). Keep snusin, have a beverage, be it water, coffee, beer, whatever you like. Just don't pay attention to the people who tell you not to drink with snus in, lös or otherwise. Horseshit. Welsome to SnusOn.

So are you swallowing the juices?

I sometimes spit from snus too, when it's too much juice. (that's tobacco juice that will kill your stomach in high quantities)

I haven't dipped in years other than trying RedMan when it first came out, which I was disappointed with. I was 13 or 14 when I was dipping regularly, and swallowing too much juice made me sick as a dog. I don't know if I'd have the same experience now, but I'd be half afraid to try. I never spit with snus, and I try to get as much juice as I can out of it. I don't know if it's age or product difference.

That is chewing tobacco (redman) and of course you're not supposed to swallow the juices, they can give you all sorts of digestive problems too.

I never found chew pleasant, it's nasty ! Even the flavored one will create such a nasty taste in your mouth and I've tried quite a few.

My brother in law drinks beer with dip in his mouth. I have had him try some snus, I gave him some General samplers, he liked the wintergreen a lot. He didnt seem interested in it enough to buy more though.

I don't think it would be any different now lxskllr. I forgot I had dip in once on the phone with someone for a long chat. I am so used to snus that I forgot to spit and just gutted the dip. My stomach started churning and then I realized I'd been gutting the juices. A smaller dip does limit the juices quite a bit but they're still gut-wrenching.

I drink a beverage with most snus. It's not really required, but I like it. Mostly coffee or tea. I find that if there is no beverage then the portion gets spit out faster. I limit my drinking with los 'cos it causes mudslides. I'm so used to kicking my portion up with coffee and that doesn't really work with los. I can drink w/ a dip in and it doesn't move around or break up...I just keep thinking I'm swallowing the juice along with what I'm drinking that I don't attempt it much. Only to keep my mouth moist enough to enjoy the dip. Then again that adds to the juices. Vicious cycle.

I'm talking about the RedMan dip that came out a couple years ago. I got the fine cut natural. I was hoping for something like Copenhagen, but it was to light and flowery. Every so often I'm tempted to get a tin of Cope, but it always comes down to "why bother?". I like snus more, and dip only offers a more difficult, and for me, a more expensive experience.

[precious007]

and dip only offers a more difficul

Why is it more difficult?

Why is it more difficult?

Spitting. Keeping spit cups around the house is disgusting, and a PITA. AFAIC spit tobacco is only suitable for outside use.

And it repels most women with teeth.

I would assume I am as you folks say gutting it but there seems to be so little it has never bothered me that I can remeber over the yrs ! Now I could never swallow the amount that comes from chew but then I only chew when hunttingl or fishing and a few other rare times and only were spitting is private :O)

I swallow snus juices, I drink with it in, portions and lös. Doesn't bother me.

Dip on the other hand I can't gut and I can't drink anything while dipping, it just won't work for me. Gutting dip tears your stomach up!
