Re-Using Snus?

[Soliex]

Hi All, I have first tried Snus when I was in Scandinavia, I really enjoy it! I had a friend come to the states from Norway and I showed him around Philadelphia. He brought me some Skruf Snus because he knows I enjoy it. I really enjoy it while driving. It mellows me out and puts my road rage tendacies on the back burner. I just kind of sit there and feel good.

Now I usually only do one a day and thats in the morning for my drive. I would like to use that same one for the ride home, simply because I dont like to carry the container around and it gets all hot. I keep my snus in the fridge at home. I have tried wrapping it in paper towel and trying it around lunch time, either you cant re-use snus or im not letting it dry up enough. Has anyone sucessfully re-used snus to get even a little bit of the buzz?

Thanks for feedback.

Perhaps find a small container and bring an extra portion or two with you to work instead of re-using a spent portion. Just my .02

Soliex, welcome to the forum. If you have had a snus in for 30 minutes or so the first time, I doubt there is much nicotine left in it when you re-use it. There *might* be some flavor still, but that is about it.

I have been using snus for 16 months. My containers travel with me all day and are never in a refrigerator unless I am home. Honestly, I have NEVER had any issues with that. Don't stress it, take it with you, enjoy it whenever you feel the need. That is how you make life good.

Soliex, just use two portions. It tastes better and gives more buzz than to reuse one portion. It's not so much of a problem, if a single portion gets hot and dry. That just happens everytime you don't have a fridge ready. Since snus was invented long before refrigerators existed, I just don't mind. But I totally understand your sentiment not to waste your snus. I guess I'm very much like you in that regard, but yeah, to reuse snus just is not very enjoyable.

Cheers!

Same, just take the whole tin with you. When you get home throw it in the fridge. Next day repeat.

I Suppose... I'm trying to savor it because I typically don't order it or buy it myself unless I am in Scandinavia or have a friend coming over.

It's something I don't do everyday but enjoy the feeling it gives me.

I always have a tin of portion snus in my pocket when I'm working. Normaly I store snus in fridge/freezer, but when I take it to work, it never sees fridge again. Sometimes they get little dry, but you can put a drop or two water to pouch before applying.

I have had no problems with that. Except, all my working snuses are white portion, and they are too weak. 8)

The thought of putting a used snus pouch in my mouth after it has set out half the day turns my stomach. Dear god just splurge and take two with you. Stick the other in a small case.

I couldn't see myself reusing snus. I use an empty tin of snus as my travel tin for portions. I just throw in as many as I think I will use that day, while the rest stay nice and fresh in my fridge

Please...

The nicotine and flavor will be gone. Toss the used portion - fer pete's sake!

You can take the entire can where ever you go during the day. Toss it in the frig at night and will it will remain fresh for the entire life of the can.

My cans last days and there is no loss of freshness - however sometimes after being cooled they dry a little. Ok for me, I prefer the portions a little dry and clean. Saliva fixes that shortly.

Note: I have tried cans cooled and uncooled. Cooled helps the flavor but uncooled isn't too bad either. Cooling must help in preserving long term freshness. I have 40, no 39 cans in the frig. 3 brands open at any give time.

Reusing a portion = gross. My opinion.

I don't know what your financial situation is, but BuySnus and Northerner are fairly cheap.
