Hygeinic way to insert snus?

[ItsHectic]

I'm curious what the OP does with his hands that he or she doesn't want to touch the portions before placing them in his or her mouth? I'm guessing biting his or her fingernails is out of the question, lol.

I have a precious non-daily car which I keep the interior as new(literally), saliva is okay but no oils, if I am driving this car I wont eat hand food at a restaurant unless they have a sink. On top of this I have OCD also. And yes all these rules apply to any passengers too.

Surgical gloves.

Surgical gloves.

I use them when I need to inflate the tyres because the brake dust is hard to wash off my hands.
I am not putting them on every time I want to put in a portion at the lights.

I think I will try tweezers for now.

Okay I guess I will stick to portions.

I really dont understand why they are almost square though, they overlap my teeth.

I guess I will roll them up before getting in to the car.

Lab makes skinny long portions. They stay out of the way pretty well and IMO their 06 is the best extra strong portion out there.

I would use tweezers as well in that situation. Can you imagine someone observing though. They would be like what the f-k are you taking.

Not sure why these size portions have not become the standard for regular portions?

So are saying roadhead is not happening in this vehicle or would you make an exception?

Isn't that why we have opposable thumbs? I just glance down on occasion to make sure there's no mustard on my fingers, before putting snus in my mouth.

Andy, sounds like you have a dual snus addiction and mustard phobia....lol

I despise this new size portion and prefer the old standard. There was virtually NO reason for the to re-invent the wheel...IMO

Hey Rick, what don't you like about the lab size/slim long portion?

Agreed, the standard 1gr pillow portions are just fine.....although despise is bit harsh.......

Why sugarcoat it? Why not tell us how you really feel???

Alright, here's a failsafe way to insert los in a sanitary manner.

First, wash your hands. Twice. You have to do it twice because soap doesn't get rid of everything the first time. Then, put on a pair of elbow length sanitary gloves, the kind they use for cleaning up toxic materials. Make sure to dip them into a vat of rubbing alcohol - you'll have to hold your breath for that. Also, swish some rubbing alcohol in your mouth too to kill any nasty stuff in there. Now you'll want to sterilize your tools. Icetool is great but is a breeding ground for gross stuff. I recommend irradiating it for at least an hour. Microwave might work??? A radiation chamber might be a tad expensive. Also, some types of radiation (gamma) have a long half life so be careful if you go that route. Next buy a dentist's tool to hold your mouth open. Sterilize the hell out of it, and put it on. Next, get all your sterilized equipment in place, and open a can of los. Bacteria can breed on moisture so you'll only get one sterile portion per can but imho it's totally worth it. Use the icetool to put a portion in, then take off the dental equipment and voila, you're done. The sterilization tools can get iffy after repeated uses so you'll want to buy a new icetool, gloves, dental equipment, every couple of portions. Please post pics of your setup for our group knowledge.

I want to be able to put portioned snus in my mouth without sticking my fingers in my mouth or getting residue on my fingers.

Is there something more purpose made than say tweezers? I would really like a Snus accessory for this but cant find it on northerner.

I dont see how a syringe could help.

I am thinking something in between tweezers and tongs.

I have found loose snus to be very messy, I get nicotine all over my hands when making it.

But when using it I get sticky fingers, it doesnt stay in 1 peice when I take it out, it also gets stuck between my teeth. I dont see the appeal in loose snus.

For me, the mouth feel is all wrong.

He's wanting a "tool" for portions...not los :-)
