I'm just about have all the snus donations here and am getting ready to send it off before too long. I'm just waiting for 1 more members package to show up. Theres a lot of snus [and some dip] to be shipped to afganistan. I haven't counted up all the rolls yet but there is a lot.....and most of it is strong or xtra strong. This package should make them very happy.


I will surely get this shipped out by the end of next week....so there is still time for you to contribute by paypal to get in on the contest for the free roll.

WELL!! I'm still waiting for that last package before I can end this. Apparently there was a problem with UPS and the highly valued snuson member. Hes straightening it out now. So it looks like there be a few more days for anyone else to monetarilly contribute before I recieve that last package. I need to get this all out. My freezer is huge but its fully packed and this tobacco has to get out to the military soon.

Damit Mr. XXXX..........get on the stick or we start forwarding all the spam that snuson recieves over to you.

Ok I've waited enough. The last contribution that I waited so long for never came in. However, that member is having $ problems right now. He is a valued member here so I am electing to leave his name on the list so he might win the free roll. If you have a problem with that then you can PM me. Do not post your concerns on this thread. You still have a day or so to contribute. We will have the results of the contest very soon. Sorry for the delay.

Well this mission is finally completed. It took quite a while to get accomplished, for several reasons, but its finally done now. There was quite a bit of snus and Grizzley dip shipped off.
I have photos of all the snus and dip that I shipped off but I just don't have time right now to post them. The gal intended for the photo is in cali now so one day I'll get a photo of her up also. This gal is about twice as hot as the first one. I'll try to get this done soon. Thanks to everyone that contributed.

Heres a copy of the letter that was sent along with the goodies.


Dear Members of our armed forces,


We recieved a note from the mother of
PFC, Good, Bryan
TF Maverick/CJTF/D-Co 1-12 INF
BAF
APO AE 09354

Inquireing that maybe there is a better alternative to useing chew or dip and contacted us about the benefits of snus over dip, etc. You will see below some of the benefits, health and otherwise to use swedish snus to maintain you nicotine cravings. Everyone of you boys that recieves these cans should please read this whole letter.

First, let us introduce ourselves. We are members of an online forum called Snuson (
www.snuson.com) . We share a love for Swedish Snus, Nasal snuff, and all the many freedoms that you guys are fighting to defend. For the most part we are x-smokers and x-dippers who love tobacco and have found Swedish Snus to be an amazing and much safer alternative to cigarettes or dip.

Now we know that there is no way we could ever thank you enough for all the many sacrifices that you make every day on our behalf. However, we wanted to do something however small to let you guys know how much we appreciate your service to our country. Therefore, we got together and put together a little care package full of snus for you guys to try out and enjoy. We also included some Grizzly Dip. Please use the snus a few days and you will be amazed how it curbs the nic cravings, while having very low TSNAs.....and theres no spitting.

What is snus?
Snus is a moist tobacco product which originated in the early 19th century in Sweden. It was brought over to America by the Swedish and Danish Immigrants and over time morphed into American dip (notice the names Skoal and Copenhagen). However, unlike the American dip of today, Swedish Snus maintains its traditional high standards of purity. In Sweden snus is regulated as a food product and must meet all the requirements for ingestible items. Thus one of the big differences between snus and dip is that there is no need to spit. This has made snus a very popular option for women as well as men around the world.

Another big difference between snus and American dip is the way Snus is processed. Snus is steam-pasteurized rather than fire-cured like dip. Also Snus is not fermented, contains no added sugar, and must meet Swedish purity standards with regards to any ingredient added. The result is that Snus has an extremely low carcinogen count (Cancer causing agents found in many Tobacco products especially those that involve fire, be it smoking like a cigarette or fire curing the leaf as with dip). In fact, after extensive testing there has been no link found between snus and any form of oral cancer or otherwise. For this reason Snus has become a popular alternative to smoking and traditional "chewing" tobacco. In fact, Sweden has the lowest male smoking rate in the European Union.
But health advantage is just one reason we love snus. Really the main reason is the great taste and superior quality of the product.

How to Use
First, because snus does not have all the chemical preservatives that other tobacco product have, it is best to freeze snus for long term storage or to keep it refrigerated once the can is open. However, if you do not have a refrigerator with you, your open tin will be fine (it may get a little dry after a few days but it won’t go bad) If it does dry out somewhat just add a few drops of water or coffee to the tin and let it set for a few hours. Disregard the best by dates on the tins as most of this snus has been stored in a freezer, where it will keep indefinately. Snus never really goes bad but it might dry out a little if not stored properly.

Second, Snus comes in two forms: portions (think small teabags) and loose (think dip just without the torn up gums).
In both cases the snus is placed in the upper gums (unlike dip which traditionally goes in the lower gums). This produces less saliva and thus the urge to spit. Keep in mind, snus is a food product and thus it is safe to swallow the juice. In fact, you are supposed to.
Portions are more discreet, less hassle, and are often where people start who have never used smokeless tobacco products. Pop a portion in and away you go.
Loose (Lös) snus is can be used like dip in the lower lip (pinch and go). However, it is more traditional to take a small amount compress it until it looks like a tiny loaf of bread and place it in the upper gums (thus the name for this process is called baking)

To learn more you can simply google “snus” or we warmly invite you to take a look at our site. We have a wealth of information, links, and resources that have been provided by a lot of knowledgeable folks.
Regardless, we hope you will drop by, hang out, and let us thank you for all that you are doing for our country (www.snuson.com)
