Good enough to eat?

[littlesilverboxfromwales]

Does anyone else find themselves accidently eating their loose snus.
I use Probe Whiskey loose at home and when it starts to break up a little under my lip I find myself swallowing the bits as they taste so good.
Could this be a bad thing?

I'm not a chemist but I think it'll perhaps only upset your stomach and just *maybe* give you diarrhea as nicotine acts as a stool softener/laxative.
I read somewhere that the MAC for nicotine is around 50~60mg. so if a pris of 1 gram has 8mg nicotine you'll be safe.
I wouldn't recommend it though.

I agree. I invariably end up swallowing a bit and it's not a problem. I wouldn't eat the whole prilla, mind you :shock:

Hey!, Does it count towards my five a day :wink:
It hasn't caused me any stomach problems as of yet, I have almost ignited my wifes nasal hairs though when I've let rip :twisted:

Yes, I was just going to say...it's not the stomach that you should be concerned about, its that LOWER TRACK that can be the issue.

I have certainly lowered the tone around here. Damn, I can't blame the hound for that one ops:

Maybee it counts as one fruit and vege. Tobacco is high in antioxidants, perhaps it's doing ya some good.

[littlesilverboxfromwales]

Not smoking is doing me a world of good, I owe the Swedes a debt of gratitude. Are there really antioxidants in tobacco? :shock:

I like mine with some fava beans and a nice chianti. *slurping noise*

I'll try anything, Usually a nice spanish red 8) with it.
