    I feel like a criminal...

    I have my snus stash secured in a cooler hidden under my bed....

    All of my snuff is hidden on the top shelf of my closet in the Christmas decorations box....

    My chew is hidden in the back of my sock drawer....

    I have a tin of mini sterks on my person....

    My parents are minutes away from showing up for a week and a half long visit....

    To stay with me....

    I am thirty years old and have two kids....

    The oldest is five.

    I almost titled this thread "Hiding snus from my parents".

    I just don't want to hear their crap.

    That is all.

      I hope you don't get grounded, or even worse, a spanking!

      I remember when my mom found a pack of Kools in my sock drawer in 9th grade. She yelled at me for three days. Good times...

        I find myself hiding the cans I have meant for the US market because of all the FDA lies over them. It kind of demonizes something that should not be demonized :/ It was difficult enough persuading people snus is a tobacco harm reduction product even with the 'soft' Swedish warning on it. Now when I open the fridge I'm greated with 'this product can cause mouth cancer' WTF!

          Yeah - apparently snus makes your teeth fall out. Shouldn't somebody take legal action over that one?

              you should
              Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I killed because they were annoying......





              I've been wrong lots of times.  Lots of times I've thought I was wrong only to find out that I was right in the beginning.

                  Oh yeah, that's the other one 'causes gum disease and tooth loss'

                  The only one I agree with is 'smokeless tobacco is addictive' (along with any other nicotine product) I wish the FDA would accept that Swedish snus is not US dip. Just sayin'

                      I know how you feel Monkey, my Wife and son know I do Snus and Snuff but I still feel like I have to hide it. I call it being "discrete" as I don't want to be a bad influence on my son...

                        My kids are cool with snus.

                        They know...everybody knows....even my parents.

                        The 'rents are the only ones that give me shit about switching from smoking to smokeless.

                          My wife is extremely supportive of my snussing because she's immediately aware of the benefits to the children.

                          My parents aren't so sure - but I don't care. I understand it's difficult with parents sometimes but I'm nearly 41 and my mother can either like something or take a run and jump about things these days - possibly cruel, but it nips things in the bud.

                            Yeah...every time I go through this with her though. It is always the last time she brings it up.

                            Short of telling her to **** off, there is no reasoning with her.

                            She only comes to see my kids and give me a rash of shit anyway...

                            And my dad is sooooo whipped that his opinion is her opinion. Poor guy.
