    Just do it

    Are there any other lös users out there that just use snus without the procedures? I dipped Red Man leaf for years. So, when I started using Skoal I just put it in my lower lip on the side. Next time on the other side to move it around. I started chewing too much to put in the front of my lower lip.
    Now that I am snusing, I do the same thing. No Ice Tools, hand baking etc. I just scoop some up with a spoon, pack it in my lip with my tongue and forget about it. When it is almost done, I put what is left in my front lower lip to finish it. I do not understand the need for all this talk about how to do this or that to make it work. What am I missing?

    Does it not get all over your teeth?

    Bear in mind that many of use haven't used any sort of oral tobacco before snus.

      You should find out for yourself. There are no fixed rules, but I'd say that with this extremely fine ground stuff the baking-and-upper-lip-method is just as natural as the bottom-lip-method is with dip.

      I, personally wouldn't be able to keep a single prilla of snus for hours, if I used the bottom lip. I also doubt that I could get the same amount of nicotine out of it and I would probably be spitting all of the time.

      Before I started to use snus, I also thought if snus really should be "baked" and put in the upper lip, but since I came to snus from smoking, I just did it and it became second nature for me within the first days of use.

      Cheers!

          I guess so. Just part of the fun.

          >wouldn't be able to keep a single prilla of snus for hours
          That seems like a long time. I think mine is worn out by then.

          >bottom lip.........the same amount of nicotine out of it
          I would think the opposite. It juices up much more down there. Maybe this is why mine does not last as long as yours up top.

          >I would probably be spitting all of the time
          Every couple of minutes for me. I have tried the upper lip thing a few times to give my lower lip a break. I stays packed easily and I do not think I get as much taste out of it. I guess I am just a typical American with the lower lip thing. Some may even call me a ............

          Apro po since I am a read-neck at heart. :P
