      snuff really ****s up my sinuses, I'm alergic to pretty much all kinds of snuff apart from the menthol ones.

      that's why I rarely use it, and not only but regular use of snuff makes me highly fatigued and sometimes I get nausea.

          I forgot to say about Fribourg Treyer high dry toast

          http://www.mysmokingshop.co.uk/index...man=186&cat=82

          If you're new to snuff the toasts might/could be a bit much for you, but Whisky & Honey and Bourbon toast from Toque should be better as they're not as fine as snuff like Fribourg Treyer and Toque natural toast

          EDIT..

              Toast is toasted snuff tobacco (correct me if I'm wrong). The main difference is that it's very fine grind and often quite strong.

                What I do at the end of the day, is I rinse my nostrils with some cold water to get rid of the excess snuff. After that I take some paper and clean some of it out. I think the dust that gets stuck there after being in a large city is way more dangerous than snuff is.EDIT: Also, lots of snuff users use neti pots (or sinus rinsers like Nasaline) once or twice a week to clear the airways, nose and sinuses from snuff and other particles.

                  Never thought of it like that. Deffinately seems reasonable though. It is sad that there is no information on snuff in the US. Everyone is so concerned with cigarettes that there is little to no info. I guess i will rely on yall

                    "toasted" is the manufacturing method, it's toasted rather than sun-dried. A toast is a VERY FINE snuff, and FINE in every sense of the word, it has a wonderful flavour ... but ... It's really sneezy if you're new at it!

                      "As of today, there is no definite evidence found to prove that snuff tobacco products cause cancer or any other health hazards.

                      Chain cigarette smokers can fall into a plethora of dangerous health risks. Snuff forms an ideal substitute for cigarette smokers. It is a proven fact that snuffing reduces the health risks associated with cigarette smoking and can curtail the use of or entirely eliminate the use of cigarettes. Hence snuff tobacco products stands in a remarkable position as a safe alternative to cigarettes and other tobacco products available on the market.


                      Nicotine is not as an immense killing element as other agents contained in related tobacco products and cigarettes. This fact is proven in several surveys conducted for cancer research. Rather, there are some benefits found in snuffing tobacco. For Mine workers, it increases the excretion of the nasal membrane, which keeps the inner walls of the nose moist, resulting in a decreased chance of dust particles getting inhaled, which hamper the human body. Apart from this nasal snuff tobacco products manufactured by us are environment friendly.

                      According to Dr. Rodu, a leading pathologist studying cancer and tobacco, it’s the burning and inhaling of tobacco that creates most carcinogens. Many specialists feel that, for health reasons, if you are going to use tobacco, you are better with smokeless tobacco i.e snuff tobacco.

                      A study has proven that there are many therapeutic uses of tobacco leaves meant for curing different health ailments.


                      Oral problems mentioned below can be relieved with the help of tobacco :
                      1. Pyorrhea
                      2. Bleeding gums and many more.
                      The benefits of tobacco snuff over cigarette is :
                      1. Snuff Tobacco is safer
                      2. Snuff Tobacco products are available in competitive prices
                      3. Snuff Tobacco consist of non-smoking elements
                      Hence snuff tobacco is a safer alternative to cigarette smoking."

                        hmmm! i see now! thank you. I guess i wont give up just yet. haha. What would W.E. Garrett and Sons scotch snuff be considered? i dont get though why on my can of dental sweet snuff why it says it is not a safe alternative to cigarettes. Probably just an American thing like everything else that has a warning label on it!

                          A Toast is just a little bit easier to snuff than the Garrett and Dental snuff yo are using. It won't be quite as smokey smelling as some of the American Snuffs. I think that at some stage in the process it is placed under some type of heat and slightly heated, similar to toasting bread, giving it a distinct aroma and drying it a bit. Unfortunately mysmokingshop won't ship to the USA. However, Toque does, http://www.toquesnuff.com/ , and Mr Snuff https://mrsnuff.com/

                          Toast are my favorite, particular Whiskey & Honey and Lime Toast by Toque. If you know you are coming over to the Shreveport area PM me ahead of time and I can get you some samples.

                              The best thing about snuff in the UK is the government exempted snuff from tax, because of its not presenting a health hazard, i guess it was to encourage people to snuff rather than to smoke. That didn't really go to plan i don't think, most people don't know what snuff is, or if they do they say "oh yeah, my great grandpa used that stuff". If i snuff in public people think i'm doing drugs. Toque do a snuff called coke hahaha, how funny is that. Question, what's that mate? Answer, it's coke

                                HAHAH! I would be like what the...ahaha. Yeah i am afraid people will give me looks as well. People get it confused here cause we have stuff like Copenhagen Snuff but that is for your lip and not for the nose. You say snuff in the US and they automatically think oral tobacco. Unfortunate really. No one really knows about it. Majority speaking of course.
