Hi all waiting on first snus order....Great site good info.

[skidoo]

I soooo want to get off cigs. 20 a day for so long and can't quit the shit. Hope this will be the answer.I need the nicotine to function for sure!
What snus to try first??? so I have ordered portion snus :
Onyx dark bag
Skruf Stark Strong
Gotland yellow,original and green
Montecrisco
Ettan
01 Original
Oomph citrus menthol 6mg

What should a smoking newbie start taking first?

[lxskllr]

Welcome to SnusOn!

You should try them all first of course ;^)

I'd dig into them all, and enjoy the variety.

The Montecristo will be similar to the Gotland yellow, and I've never had the 01, or that particular Oomph. Otherwise, you have a nice assortment, and they're all fairly different from each other.

Yeah, very decent order, just try everything,

Since 60 minutes I am assuming, we have a bunch of new folks wanting to quit cigs popping in. I really need to get a sticky post up about this, but probably not until after I am married,

So...

Just don't stress the "stop smoking" part. Use snus, smoke if you want, do whatever pleases you most. Funny thing about snus, give \it enough time, it always wins. I didn't even plan on quitting, just happened. But took over 4 months to make that complete transition. Since then, hundreds have done the very same thing here.

So just start using the snus, the rest will just happen, I promise.

That's a nice selection you picked there and I am sure you will find a few you like out of that. My only advice is not to order too much of any one thing after you find one you like as your taste will change over time. I keep finding that I am not liking flavored snus much at all. The exception to that would be Oomph which is light and easy to use anywhere. Have fun trying it!

Hi skidoo. Enjoy the snus!

Be sure to throw some Nick and Johnny Strong and some General Ekstra Sterk in the next order if some of the milder stuff isn't doing a good enough job in curbing your nicotine appetite. You should be quite pleased with the Ettan. I have one in my mouth right now and it is delicious. Good, smooth, pure tobacco taste with no pepper and very little salt. Excellent.

A wise man Willie Nelson said...

I hope this to be true for Snus and smoking for a lot of us smokers.

"If it was not for Marijuana I would be dead!It got me off the booze and drugs." Willie is big proponent of NORMAL.

Oh where's my snus I can't wait,starting another day with cigs.....

Welcome to Snuson. I recommend some stronger ones in you're next order, they will help in the first few weeks of not smoking, but like Sage said, the snus will win out in the end. I was a two pack a day, I didn't believe some random guy on a forum, but Sage was right. Trust me, in just 4-6 months, everything you do that you associate with cigs now, you will associate with snus. Even drinking coffee. I recently picked up smoking again due to some personal issue, but within a week and a half I was back on snus. That morning cup of coffee isn't as good with a Camel as it is with a Ettan or Oden's Cinnamon.

Exp monkey mentioned two of my favorites. Nick & johnny strong, and general es. Out of what you ordered, I loooved oomph citrus, it saved my life last fall. I'm sure you've heard this, but, make sure thatif you don't like something, don't get discouraged and keep trying stuff, then go back and forth and you'll figure out your particular taste likes. Good luck. I've been doing fairlywell with thesmokes. Although I've somked a bit over the past two days (stress I guess) but back on my general minis and lord had I missed them and hate the ashy taste of the smokes,but alas had to do it. best of luck.

got the onyx and gotlands

popped the onyx in first prob little to far back was melting had to ditch it in 5 min. Have a Gotlands Grey in folded it length ways to be comfy and fit proper.25 min and now its starting to taste good and the calming nic effect is begining.is above/behind the cannine a good placement?

Re: got the onyx and gotlands

is above/behind the cannine a good placement?

Yea, that's about where I put mine when using portions. I move mine around though, and suck on them when the flavor as started waning. There really isn't any wrong way. In general, farther forward in the mouth means less flavor, slower nic, while farther back is more flavor, faster nic.

AND more juice.

But.... lxskllr is exactly right, there is no wrong way. "Traditional" placement is pretty close to the center of your mouth. But I have been doing it "wrong" since day one and could never stand doing it the way most do. For me, "right" is pushed all the way pack, right next to my rear most tooth. Just what has always felt best to me, and maybe one reason I had to switch over to using most only whites a few years ago.

So put it where it feels right, it will be right. :lol: :lol:
