    How high is your nicotine tolerance?

    How much Snus or tobacco do you need to get through your day without feeling like you going to snap on someone or something that irritates you?
    I am just curious because I use 1-3 Portions a day and im not sure if I'd punch crying babies if I didn't have any snus. Whats your take on this?

    Anywhere from 5 up to whatever. Really depends on the day and my mood. I'd freak if I didn't have snus for a whole day though. For sure.

    I can't really tolerate sterks though. Everything I use is 9 mg or less per serving and rarely I use more than a gram.

      At least 10 Extra Stark portions/pris's & 1/2 dozen toot's on nasal snuff...

      Dependent on if I'm visiting with the *fiance'* or not on given day.

        I average about 1 an hour. Sometimes more, sometimes less. After about two regulars, I crave a sterk. Snuff is random. Sometimes I go days without it. Sometimes I use it all day.

          I probably use 8-12 portions roughly, some ES mixed in. I'm still in the glorious switch from cigs stage though, and want to try a lot of things so I use more than I really would need to.

            I average around 3 pris a day. Usually 1 General Extra strong portion every other day. I do go through a 10g tin of snuff in 3-4 days.

              Prior to snuff I was using between 8 and 12 sterk (11-13 mg) a day. Since snuff 4 or 5. I am quite satisfied and rarely have that uncomfortable feeling for the need for nicotine that was almost always there when I smoked.

                I use 4 portions at work, and then usually 2 dips or chews after. I sometimes snuff, but not much, I still can't see how anyone empties a tin, lately it's been irritating my throat, so I haven't touched it.

                  If it irritates your throat you are snuffing it too far. Sniff gently

                        Ditto. Nick & Johnny (my favorite, by far), Claq Qui (until I run out of the 2 rolls that I have), and General ES

                          I have a work routine. Sterk portion on my way to work, regular portion around 10. Regular portion on my way to lunch or around that time. Sterk portion after lunch. Three more regulars before 5:30, then loose at night, and maybe a late night sterk portion. 8-12 portions or pris a day. More If im drinking or playing disc golf.

                            During the work week I will snus 8 to 12 portions per day. During my days off with less stress, I do 4 to 8 portions per day. I mix in a few starks and I also like some of the strong portions.

                            Snus is a lifesaver when I go out and have a drink. I can smell people smoking outside and I'll get the urge to smoke and all I have to do is pop in a portion and the cig cravings disappear...

                              Tom, seriously, regarding the nasal snuff. I've pretty much gotten to a point where I just "Pinch & twist in a circular motion just inside the nasal cavity / relaxing my fingered pinch" whilst sniffing almost normal breaths. I haven't hit the back of my throat with it since.
