    Heya People, new snuser here

    Just realized that I never posted an intro thread to introduce myself. My name is Rick and I'm a reformed smoker and new snuser. Thanks to all here and other forums that continue to put out accurate information about snus. It's been an incredible help to me and will be to others in the future.

    From Lexington KY and that's not far from the new Swedish Match Gothiatek plant that they are putting in Owensboro KY. Talked to them at the plant last week and they aren't giving any dates about the US rollout, though they are test marketing in select areas. They even gave me the name and number of a rep out of Huntington WV, but he was a real dipshit and didn't really know anything about real swedish snus. Guess he worked for Pinkerton Tobacco or something like that, regardless he was a tard.

    Anyway, I've been a non smoker for about a week now and I"m in the "hackin all the grey/brown shit outta my lungs" stage, but feel great.
    I'll never smoke again, can't even stand the smell of them now. Plus snus tastes so damned good, why would I want to smoke something that was "ashtray" flavored?

    I recognize some of the names here from other forums, but most I do not, so I look forward to getting to know everyone.

        Thanks. Right now, I'm starting to sweat my next order being here tomorrow. I'm down to my last 10 portions, not counting a sample pack of mini mints. They taste too much like toothpaste..lol

          Welcome to the pound Rick and congradulations on the non-smoke status.
          When it's my time to go, I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my uncle did....... Not screaming in terror like his passengers

            Welcome Rick. Nice to see you around here. To make it a perfect threefer, when you get into snuff check out snuffhouse. A bunch of us are over there also.

              Welcome to the forum Rick! Congratulations on the quitting for a week. I'm relatively new to snus myself, and my journey so far has been much fun. The guys on here are really helpful and I'll tell you that you will find out more about snus here than anywhere else (short of reading for a degree in snus :P ).

                      Welcome Rick,
                      Nice info on the Swedish Match Plant, I just wonder with tobacco being taxed more and more every day, what the cost will be in the US. Maybe I need to stock my freezer with more.

                        When I first started researching snus, I was amazed to find all the information that was available out here. I'm really thankful that I found it. I've wanted to quit smoking for years, glad I did. Now, where'd you get that cool banner that counts your days as a non smoker..lol
