in 2008, two new items were introduced, grizzly snuff and grizzly wintergreen pouches, placed in market with quality cues communicating a new message about grizzly’s being a premium brand. the new message reflected the change in the primary message from “everyday low price” to more of a focus on the quality, heritage and tobacco expertise found in every can of grizzly .

grizzly is now focused on becoming a # 1 brand within the naturals segment. many would view this as a tall order for a brand like grizzly that has only been around a short while. but, american snuff co. has been in the natural dry snuff business since 1900, so grizzly’s roots are in naturals. american snuff co. has the know - how and expertise to provide the highest quality and best tasting natural tobacco products. with a renewed focus on premium quality, heritage, and tobacco expertise, grizzly premium natural is well positioned to better compete and continue strengthening its market position .
in early 2010 grizzly introduced metal lids across the entire product line to elevate the brand position, increase brand equity, and retain franchise adult consumers. this packaging transition has helped the grizzly brand continue its positive market share growth despite tremendous pressure from competitive moist smokeless brands. today, the moist snuff category is growing at more than 7% , and grizzly is driving that increase .
i dip grizzly every day and it the wintergreen. i love grizzly because it calms my nerves after a long day. my first dip was grizzly wintergreen and it gave my the biggest nicotine buzz, i still dip grizzly and i still love it i remember me, my brother, and his friends hangin out in the back yard of where i lived and my brother put a dip in and so did his friend, i asked em if i could try some and i three fingered it and they said it wasn' t a good idea for me to three finer it and i did anyways. it was amazing grizzly is my # 1 favorite by far .
dr. rodu and two colleagues at the university in birmingham analyzed varieties of moist snuff, plug tobacco and chewing tobacco that account for 95 percent of the smokeless tobacco sold in the united states .
looseleaf chewing tobacco and plug tobacco generally had less nicotine than moist snuff, dr. rodu said. factors like moisture content, additives and tobacco varieties account for the differing nicotine levels, he said .

copenhagen is the top seller among all smokeless products, according to the tobacco reporter .
stick with the popular brands, like copenhagen and grizzly. skoal is okay. avoid longhorn and kayak, which is nicknamed
yak ,
since that' s what it tastes like .
do not confuse chewing tobacco (the loose stuff that comes in a bag, like red man) with the slightly classier dipping tobacco (the more finely chopped stuff in a tin) .
smokeless tobacco has the same amount of carcinogens as coffee. and just tobacco had nicotine. coffee has caffeine which are both addictive. the only real truth is tobacco is addictive, just like coffee. and think about how many people in the u. s. alone drink coffee .
johnny chewing tobacco is pretty much the same a dip. just lasts longer in my opinion .
you’re in the wrong place if you’re looking for real tobacco. we’re all about quitting here .

plus, grizzly has the best - selling wintergreen pouches in the industry with 45. 1% of all wintergreen pouch volume. but the growth story doesn’t end there. it began in september 2001, when conwood company (the former name of american snuff co .) tested and launched a new, no - frills, high - quality product with the brand name “grizzly. ” initially consisting of two styles, long cut wintergreen and fine cut natural – grizzly was introduced at an everyday - low price and supported with a price - focused message. through 2006, four subsequent styles — (long cut straight, long cut mint, long cut natural and fine cut wintergreen) were launched and were supported in much the same way. by the end of 2006, grizzly was the number one price - value brand and the number three share of market moist brand in the u. s .

the research showed moist snuff - - the only type of smokeless tobacco with increasing sales, according to the tobacco reporter, a trade journal - - has the highest nicotine levels.' very high' nicotine level
why tobacco? because it affected me personally. i’m not one of these anti - tobacco zealots (or at least i don’t try to be) that says “everyone needs to quit – ban all tobacco! !! ” that’s sort of a silly tact in my opinion. we’re all adults. if you choose to use tobacco, that’s your choice. if and when someone makes their decision then we’ll be there for them .
in much of the rest of america, smokeless tobacco is huge and getting huger. by 2013, about six million americans regularly stuffed tobacco in their mouth, and sales were rising by about 6 percent a year .
u. s. smokeless tobacco company is the leading producer and marketer of moist smokeless tobacco. the company' s leading brands, copenhagen and skoal, each represent more than $ 1 billion in annual retail sales .
i’m having a hard time making the leap from “defaming tobacco” to “defaming america” but i’ll let that one slide .
tobacco is a sacred, healing plant in native american spirituality. it was used long before european contact and “big tobacco”. this plant that you seem to consider a scourge is beneficial in certain types of mental illness and also parkinson’s disease. this is because of nicotine, a relatively harmless drug that promotes feelings of contentment, and pleasure. all tobacco that is not smoked, i. e. snuff, snus, chewing tobacco, etc. , is less carcinogenic than smoked tobacco. the cancer risks of tobacco, particularly dip, are overblown. tsna levels (tobacco specific nitrosamines), the principal carcinogens in tobacco, can be controlled (look at the gothiatek standards for swedish snus). if we focused on safer tobacco rather than letting the government find another way to take our hard earned money through tax raises, or banning it outright, which you probably support, we could make tobacco much safer than it already is, which is pretty safe to begin with. i come from a long, proud line of tobacco users, sir, and it really gets under my skin when i hear someone defaming tobacco, and in doing so, defaming america. tobacco is in my blood, literally and figuratively, as i write this. you twist the truth. you lie. citing specific cases of cancer caused by dip makes it seem that it is much more of a risk than it is in reality. but you don’t live in reality, do you? per capita, cases of cancer among tobacco users are exceedingly rare, and the risk is negligible .
good taste, good texture, great nicotine buzz. started chewing this cause it was cheap and ended up really enjoying it. i haven' t been chewing super long but i think this deserves a # 4 spot behind copenhagen, skoal, and grizzly
an estimated 10 million american adults use smokeless tobacco, the federal disease centers said. about 20 percent of high school - age boys chewed tobacco or dipped snuff in 1991, an eightfold increase from 15 years earlier, the centers estimated .
copenhagen offers the most flavor of any dip i' ve had yet. it' s very moist. i live in a pretty country ass area, and cope' s # 1 round these parts. (grizzly' s probably a far # 2 )
can' t say i agree with grizzly topping several of the chews below it. but that is just based on personal taste preference. i started with copenhagen and that is one hell of a bar to try to reach by any company. i will say that the in mouth flavor is not horrible, but the after taste was always nasty to me. tried several flavors of this brand and always got the same aftertaste. perhaps it' s the imported tobacco used in it? not sure. all in all grizzly is not a horrid chew, but it definitely does not beat out skoal, redman or levi garret in my view .
i’m pretty sure this was calculated about sweden. and they’re a huge tobacco country. and not as big as the us
hey bud. i’m only 15 and i dip. one way to stop it is to start getting sunflower seeds and if that doesn’t work, smokey mountain makes a non tobacco dip that doesn’t contain nicotine or tobacco and can’t give you cancer .
i’m not going to respond to the place tobacco has in the native american spirituality as i have no frame of reference .
i sit in the corner and quietly spit my chunky tobacco juice into a thermos. i feel rebellious and dirty and unhealthy .
dr. rodu (a doctor who has his work paid for by big tobacco) doesn’t hold much weight around these parts .

physically, it' s more of a challenge than i thought. the tobacco stings my cheek like orange juice on a canker sore .
american snuff co. has been a memphis - based business for more than a century, first starting operations in 1900. the company is soon to open its state - of - the - art new manufacturing facility in memphis, constructed in 2011, and has recently expanded operations in clarksville, tenn. celebrating its 10th anniversary, grizzly is leading the way with innovative products that are an integral part of reynolds american’s total tobacco portfolio .
a study released by the surgeon general in 1992 asserted that 75 percent of the 30, 000 new cases of oral cancer reported that year were caused by cigarettes and smokeless tobacco. an industry group, the smokeless tobacco council, contends there is no scientific evidence linking smokeless products with cancer .
but in recent decades, dwindling opportunities for overt manliness have many of us spittin' like there' s no tomorrow, and chew remains a force for millions of americans—a large majority of them male, according to the cdc. this i could have guessed. my freezer has been filling up with these hockey pucks of tobacco i order online, and the logos are almost comically macho: a grizzly bear, a rifle, a longhorn bull—everything but a scrotum .
for the first time, university researchers here have published the nicotine levels of top - selling brands of snuff and chewing tobacco in a leading dental journal .
if you’ve not started and you “want” to get into dipping, i’d suggest a non - nicotine / non - tobacco version. there are several here: urltoken
tobacco opponents are pressing for regulation of cigarettes by the food and drug administration by arguing that nicotine is a drug and that companies manipulate its content in cigarettes .
skoal long cut straight and copenhagen, another united states tobacco product, ranked next, with levels of 3. 33 percent and 3. 2 percent, respectively .
levi garrett makes loose leaf tobacco, which comes in a mail pouch and is chewed on rather than sucked on, which makes it different from most of the other brands on this list. this is by far the best quality loose leaf tobacco, with great flavor and cut and it is available in most stores. - fazecain
husky to me is about like taking half a can of timberwolf and half a can of grizzly and throwing it in the same package. it was never a very good snuff, and left a weird aftertaste. the flavor did not last very long either. it was not the worst dip i tried but it was not far from it either. .
learn the lingo. a pinch of tobacco is called a
hog ,
a
hammer ,
a
dinger ,
or a
ham hock .
i certify that i am an age 21 + tobacco consumer and want to receive premiums, offers, coupons and information from r. j. reynolds tobacco co. , r. j. reynolds vapor co. , american snuff co. , santa fe natural tobacco co. and / or their affiliates via mail or electronically. i authorize such companies and their agents to confirm the accuracy of the information i have submitted with third party databases. i understand that providing false information may constitute a violation of law .
no, i' m just using it for spit ,
i say, taking out my tin of copenhagen .
i' m testing out chewing tobacco .
list of the top 10 smokeless tobacco brands in my opinion, based on quality, flavor, price, variety, popularity, nicotine content, and availability among other aspects .
i have dipped for 30 of my 45 years of life. dipped skoal for about 20 years, grizzly about 5 years and now buy stokes by the tub. it is cheaper but juicer and has more flavor. i' m past anything that gives me a buzz. skoal didn' t even give me a buzz and i haven' t spit in about 25 years .
before you take a pinch, tap the top of the tin three times to condense your tobacco. use three fingers to grab your dip from the tin, chopstick - style .
hello, does anyone know of a tobacco free nicotine pouch manufacture? i am starting a company and need a product similar to urltoken and appreciate any help on this matter. thanks
i’ve chews for a few years now and i don’t see a problem with it. i have never heard of anybody that i know that has had cancer from tobacco products either .
smokeless tobacco went into decline for a couple of reasons, including the rise of cigarettes and fear of disease. (doctors of the day probably incorrectly thought the spit was spreading tuberculosis. )
​red seal competes in the discount category and comes in both long cut and fine cut. it' s known for offering real american value and has 25 percent more tobacco than leading brands .
if mint or fruity flavors is your thing in a chew, this brand is definitely for you. i' ve always seen skoal as us smokeless' hybrid line. skoal definitely has the most assorted of flavors to choose from, and they are all reasonably good. of course everyone is going to have a least favorite and a favorite. its no copenhagen but its also far better than timberwolf and grizzly .
i’ve not researched the details of that particular case so i can’t comment. i’ll simply say this… while i clearly hate big tobacco, if i were on a jury where someone was suing them i’d most likely rule the same way. not because tobacco wasn’t at fault but because i’d have a hard time awarding the case to the marsee family for something sean chose to do to himself .
what i have issue here is your rather ignorant statement that i “probably support” the outright banning of tobacco. that couldn’t be further from the truth. believe me, don’t believe me… your choice .
the concentration of nicotine in smokeless tobacco is higher than that in cigarettes, which ranges from about 1. 5 to 2. 5 percent, according to food and drug administration figures. but experts who have studied the intake of nicotine in cigarette smokers, pipe smokers and those who use smokeless tobacco, have found that the amount is consistent. it averages about 20 to 25 milligrams a day .
skoal long cut wintergreen, a type of moist snuff made by the united states tobacco company, had the highest nicotine level of 11 brands analyzed: 3. 35 percent of its total dry weight .
​introduced in 1934, skoal is the number two premium moist smokeless tobacco brand in the u. s. it comes in fine cut, long cut and two different pouch forms – skoal pouches and skoal bandits. skoal guarantees freshness through its distinctive freshsnap can, which features a “guaranteed fresh until” date on the bottom. like all of our products, skoal is made from 100 percent american - grown tobacco .
i have been on and off of chew for the last 13 years, i’m now turning 40 in a few months, i’ve quit cold turkey for over a year before. but after a friend offered some went back to it. my wife wants me to quit, its a hard thing to just give up. i started chewing redman long leaf while i was deployed to iraq. and changed its up to skoal and now grizzly .
this one should be number one. it' s smooth on the mouth, has great flavor, tastes natural, has a natural feeling buzz (unlike grizzly or skoal which feels chemical), has a great kick, you can dip it all day and do it again tomorrow with no soreness, and the cut is second to none. you can always get the perfect pinch, and can count on it being smooth no matter what .
but i get it. in my social circle, chewing tobacco elicits universal disgust. it brings to mind marrying your second cousin, jaw cancer, and cups of warm brown spit at awful frat parties long ago .
what if we don’t want to quit? leave us alone tobacco isn’t even bad like it’s addictive yes but i’m 35 been dipping since i was 12 and there is nothing wrong with me dentist can’t even tell i dip… .
i have been told to quit chewing by someone who had a cigarette hanging from their mouth. my point is that people get so caught up in how tobacco causes cancer they don’t see the whole picture. i’m trying to see the point of view from all these people that are anti - tobacco but i just cant seem to get head that far up your a * *. let people make their own decisions and let them make their own decisions .
how the hell is it a slim chance? according to urltoken 19. 2% of men alone died in 2010 from tobacco usage. how is this not risky? that’s nearly a fifth of the men who died in 2010 .
another brand that i don' t see how it is this low on the list. kodiak has been around for a little while now, and back when i was a young boy was very cheap. i think you could get a free can with the purchase of a can of something else (can' t remember which brand). their wintergreen is much better than grizzly' s to me, and the cut of the tobacco isn' t bad either. it is easy to pinch and the flavor lasts for a reasonable amount of time. the only problem i had with kodiak was that from time to time you would by an in date roll and it would be completely dry, but that was far and few between .
i believe dip can cause cancer but i also believe it’s a very slim chance, in fact research has shown that smokeless tobacco causes cancer in 1% of the general population. i don’t think you need to worry about cancer guys .
alan kizer, a spokesman for united states tobacco in greenwich, conn. , said he had not seen the study and could not comment on its findings. but he did say that smokeless products were known to vary in nicotine content .
a third tells me ,
there are more of us than you think. i live in a small connecticut town where a lot of people work in finance. and the gas station here has a whole fridge full of smokeless tobacco .
just because the flavor of a dip seems to be non - harmful, make no mistake about it – these products contain tobacco and nicotine! !! they are not safe alternatives to cigarettes, they are addictive and they can cause cancer .
can you please put that somewhere else ?
my wife asks. she points to the brown lump of tobacco on the sink. damn, that is a sad sight. a clear sign that i' m on the verge of addiction .
my editors—who are all from texas, for some reason—were shocked that a yankee like me had never tried it. they prescribed a fix: take oral tobacco (street name :
dip
or
chaw
) for a month and report back .
physically, it' s more of a challenge than i thought. the tobacco stings my cheek like orange juice on a canker sore. and i have no control over my wad. it' s supposed to stay compact, but strands of tobacco migrate all over my mouth. the spit builds up fast. i put my empty poland spring bottle to my lips and do my best. but instead of the bullet i' ve seen ballplayers emit, i let loose a messy, chin - dribbling drool .
i obviously need some guidance. i search the internet for
how to chew tobacco .
the first piece of advice that pops up: don' t start. the web is loaded with images of receding gums, caramel - colored teeth, missing jaws, and white patches called gator lip, along with testimonials on how smokeless tobacco is absolutely, positively not a safe alternative to smoking. (the centers for disease control and prevention reminds us that it might contain delicious arsenic, lead, and mercury. )
max shea—who works in international equities at cantor fitzgerald—tells me he dips when he has to work late nights writing reports .
you' re not going to fall asleep with tobacco in your mouth, no matter how many years you' ve been chewing it .
i smoked for 11 years, started dipping skoal berry for about a month, before i educated myself on what i was doing to myself. when i discovered swedish snus, i then realized that the addictive burn and buzz from skoal was really all the chemicals that they added, and had nothing to do with tobacco at all. now my i’m slowing cutting back, not because i’m forcing myself to, the boredom of dipping general loose snus and the lack of chemical additives is naturally allowing my body to stop tobacco products all together. and being that swedish snus is considered to be a food, it’s against their laws to allow anything bad to be put into their product except water, tobacco, salt, humectants, and flavouring. i think it’s the best first step in quitting dip .
dr. scott tomar, a smokeless - tobacco specialist with the centers for disease control and prevention in atlanta, said that he had not seen the study but that it was important because it was the first to give nicotine levels by brand. first ties to brand names
i' m not rabidly opposed to oral tobacco. i now understand its appeal very well—the buzz, the ritual, the oral fixation, the history. i understand the possibility—according to some research—that it' s not as dangerous as cigarettes (a position that remains controversial) .
spitting is the most controversial part of smokeless tobacco. it' s the part my family hates most, thanks to the half - filled diet coke cans i often forget to clean up that dot the tables of my apartment. miraculously, no one has yet taken a swig .
red seal is a dip which is manufactured by u. s. smokeless, the company that manufactures skoal and copenhagen. with cans that have 25 percent more tobacco than normal cans, it is a great dip to either start out on, or to dip every day. - fazecain
​copenhagen, born in 1822, was among the first brands of moist smokeless tobacco on the market, and today remains the most authentic and best - selling premium product in the category, with retail sales exceeding $ 1 billion per year. it' s available in original fine cut and long cut, as well as in copenhagen pouches. copenhagen is also known for freshness, with a “sell by date” stamped on the bottom of every can, and for such distinguishing features as its traditional metal lid and fiberboard can. like all of our products, copenhagen is made from 100 percent american - grown tobacco .
and yet not all smokeless tobacco requires spitting. i figure it' s time to test out some saliva - free versions. first, i try a tin of dry snuff. snuff is powdered tobacco you can ingest by snorting. it' s got a long history—beethoven and napoleon loved to carry around boxes of it—but snuff just reminds me of cheap, dirty - looking cocaine. when i sniff a little mound, it makes my nose burn, then i sneeze repeatedly. i can' t get over the brown powder all over my hands. i look like i just came in from plowing potato fields .
: my late husband, who died 3 days before his 80th birthday, quit cigarettes altogether & went with tinsley thick tobacco to chew. he had always used it at events where no smoking was allowed. he was very neat & discrete about his use, never spitting in a group, etc. he was very disciplined .
i' m stuffing in bigger hogs. you can spot the swelling in my cheek, perhaps conveniently foreshadowing the tumor i' ll eventually develop. the lumps of tobacco affect my speech. they make me sound—appropriately enough—like i have a kentucky drawl. the phrase
nice to see you
comes out
nahs to shee ya .

you’ve got every right to be offended for me “defaming tobacco”. people being offended seems to be a national past time these days. i speak from personal experience. i hated being an addict to the stuff and i’m proud that i was able to to quit. i was weak and now i’m stronger and better off without it in my life .
i could go on for days but i’m going to let dr. rodu do the talking for me. i’ve had way too many relatives die of shit causes that dipped to believe that it causes cancer. i promise that the fda providing these false numbers is a ploy to make the christian anti - tobacco extremists happy and you have fallen for it my good man .
she' s a sport. she agrees. taking a pinch of the skoal mint in her lip, she grimaces. but nothing like her expression as she watched me begin my habit. the reality is less repulsive than the idea. she spits—
pfftoo, pfftoo .
she looks at me and smiles, flecks of tobacco on her teeth .
give us a kiss ?
then, with alarming speed, comes the nausea. i don' t throw up—a common dipping - tobacco rite of passage—but i feel profoundly uneasy, like i' m in a two - seater airplane bouncing through a snowstorm above buffalo. i sweat. light hurts my eyes. i space out, staring at my iphone and trying to remember why i took it out. i burp repeatedly .
latest conference call hints at a brighter future for u. s. tobacco companies. while many challenges remain, the company is primed for a better year ahead as it counters cigarette volume declines and grows its e - cigarette business. here' s what reynolds american' s management team wants you to know about its progress. all quotes are taken from the oct. 12 conference call with analysts .
i first got interested in it while researching companies ,
one tells me. he prefers not to use his name, since he' s in the closet at both work and home (where he keeps the tins hidden in the basement, away from his wife) .
the smokeless - tobacco market was growing. i justified my habit because i told myself i was doing research .
i’m brian currently 27 and dip 2 1 / 2 – 3 cans a day of kayak lc winter green and have been dipping almost 19 years somthing has got to give for health and financial reasons. i don’t want to try fake tobacco i did that for 10 months in 2012. i don’t want a crutch i want to be freed from this bondage. anyone have any advice or helpful scriptures .
our companies are also building for the long term and that means investing in platforms for sustainable growth in an evolving environment as part of our strategy to transform the tobacco industry. this too is paying off... . vuse production capacity is still being ramped up and i would remind everyone that the company will continue to make substantial investments on vuse in the fourth quarter in line with the brand’s expansion .
tastewise, i' m prepared for the worst. one helpful internet commenter warned that dip tastes like
big foot' s dick .
another: like
a rodent exploded in my mouth .
but actually, i find it more weird than gross. the clean taste of mint mixes with the dirty tobacco—it' s an odd paradox, like i' m licking an ashtray filled with tic tacs and marlboro butts .
i honestly feel terrible for any one that gets addicted to chewing. i have chewed for years by choice some times i go for months without any tobacco or nicotine and other times i go threw 3 cans a day but its all based on if i feel like it. i could stop today and never touch it again. but i still chew because i know i can stop at any time and the buzz is great !
in fairness this is blog about quitting. i have no intention of quitting and just happened to stumble across this page heading decided to troll. i love a good debate though so here we go. why would you make a comment about my misplace capitalizations and not about why you chose tobacco as your scapegoat and not one of the million other health concerns that scientists have told us is killing us? no more trolling simply seeking answers .
but the public has a right to know. so i forge ahead. i stumble onto a youtube channel founded by a man who calls himself the dip doctor. the doctor is perhaps not the best person to dispel chewing - tobacco stereotypes. he wears a camouflage cap adorned with a confederate flag. his t - shirt reads pure white trash. he owns a company called mud jug that sells portable spittoons with names like backwoods badass outlaw .
as you might imagine, a large number of users are baseball players and good ol' boys. but according to my admittedly unscientific research, it' s also catching on among wall streeters. i' ve met several finance guys who semi - secretly keep a tin in the back pocket of their suit. smokeless tobacco is big enough that it' s the target of a crackdown. by 2017, ten major league stadiums will have banned it .
ok guys lets be honest here your chances of getting mouth cancer are low. remember cancer is treatable if found early. i do monthly checks and i recommend you do it too. chewing tobacco and dip don’t cause mouth cancer or any cancer for that sort. it may effect it but it’s not the main cause. everybody wants you to stop dipping because they think it looks nasty. well they have to suck it up and deal with it. cancer is an overgrowth of cells and last time i checked dip and chew don’t do that… smoke does. so nobody should stop dipping because a man in a white labcoat says stop dipping and chewing tobacco just because he’s paid to say that. do what you want to do. i’m 25 and i’ve dipped since i was 16. i have no health problems and i’m active and fit. i also go through a can a day. do what you want .
there’s really no right or wrong one, but you wanna start probably with something that isn’t real strong as using weaker tobacco gives your body time to get acclimated to the nicotine. the strongest ones (ones you should avoid) are mint, wintergreen, southern blend, and in many cases, straight. i’d say go for something pretty mild at first like skoallc cherry or wolf peach. then start out with baby pinches and work your way up to your most comfortable serving size .
this is hilarious. the guy who is “fighting to keep us healthy ” is to caught up being an english teacher advance his cause. it’s people like this that make me sick. quit drinking soda they cause health issues. quit eating gluten it’s bad for you. unless you grow your own food and raise your own cattle you’re eating shit that has man - made chemicals in it that’ll probably all bad for your health so why pick on tobacco? is it because they’re successful ?
smokeless tobacco damn near killed me. if not physically then mentally and emotionally. it’s something that i did for 16 + years and when i quit there was very little info out there that spoke to me, the dipper. there was (and continues to be) a ton of info for smokers. i, and the other founders of ktc, set out to build a community where people who were looking to quit could come and get support, get questions answered, etc. that’s what we’ve done .
best snus i' ve come across. harder to find but definitely worth it. not really a chew, comes in portioned pouches and just sits in your lip but you can swallow normally. i just tell people i have gum in if they' re not tobacco friendly, and i can use it all day at work. personally i go for the mint (blue can) but the other flavors are either too potent or nonexistent. i like the mint flavor a lot, complements the snus flavor well .
next i test out an increasingly popular product called snus. snus started in sweden, where they remain hugely popular. they' re little individual packets of tobacco, each one the size of a chiclet. you tuck the snus into your upper lip, not the lower, because it' s the scandinavian way. there' s some evidence snus might be a tad healthier than chew, though i wouldn' t bet my insurance premium on it. regardless, they cause much less saliva. you rarely if ever need to spit .
i’ve never joined conversations before but after reading some comments thought i would chime in…i’ve been chewing since i was 12 and am now 53. . i’ve never had any tobacco related health issues. . that being said, it is obviously addicting and not “good” for you. . so if you’ve never tried it. . don’t. just because nothing has happened to me so far doesn’t mean anything won’t happen to you. every body is different and reacts different ways…my advice is run your own life and don’t let any addiction run it for you……
the moderation in the cigarette volume rate of decline is terrific news for all u. s. tobacco companies. reynolds american' s volume declined 2. 9% in the quarter and industry volume declined just 2. 7% . the company' s core cigarette brands - - camel and pall mall - - performed even better: pall mall volume decreased 1. 5% and camel volume increased 3% . management expects industry volume to decline 3. 5% for the year, a significant improvement from last year' s 4. 6% decline .
i have been reading up on the history of my new habit. native americans chewed tobacco leaves for centuries. after columbus, european settlers took to the new drug, with popularity reaching its height in america in the nineteenth century. in 1842, charles dickens visited our shores and was thoroughly grossed out by what he called the torrents of
yellow rain .
he noted there were spittoons everywhere—in courtrooms, hospitals, the senate. and in the white house, where the president' s inner circle often ignored spittoons and just
bestowed their favors
on the carpet .
i started with grizzly, then copenhagen (both were wintergreen) and then i saw i could get stokers straight dip for $ 2. 65 and i could get two for the price of one. for me, that wasn' t a bad choice. every tin i buy of stokers is completely full and tightly packed so they seem to be consistent, and it is always fresh and good quality because it doesn' t fall apart when i pinch. hell i almost took half the tin with one pinch because it was so well packed. it is very strong. i guess i can' t say i like it like want to taste it or crave the flavor but i guess it' s one of those things that you acquire a taste for. it smells terrible because it' s so strong but overall, i feel like people aren' t giving stokers credit. i once tried a tin of rum flavor skoal and i got it for dirt cheap. it was loose and not packed as tight as my stokers and it tasted like ass. i don' t know how to describe it other than i couldn' t dip it it was so bad. it may have been a bad tin but until a quality skoal tin... more

i know a lot of people do not like snus. me personally, i really enjoyed the flavors of camel snus but the fact they only make it in spitless pouches is what deters me from this product. if they were to package in loose grain cans like other snuff companies or at least put more packets in their tins i believe they would be a bit more successful with this product. it was not a horrible idea, and as i said i liked their flavors. i think robust was the one i enjoyed the most. frost was also on the same page for me. just not enough tobacco for the price it costs. plus i always had to put in like 3 packets just to get a feel from it. so weak nicotine, needless to say. kind of surprising coming from a company that produces one of the strongest cigarettes on the market .

reynolds american' s adjusted eps for q3 was $ 0. 95, up 10. 5% from the year - ago quarter as the company worked on its core brands and new products .
for some time now, our strategy has been to strengthen the operational performance and profitability of our core cigarette and moist snuff businesses. as you can see from today' s report, these efforts are really paying off. earnings and margin are up across the board and our companies' key brand remained a powerful force in the competitive marketplace .
better volume and higher pricing combined for solid earnings growth in the third quarter. adjusted eps for q3 was $ 0. 95, up 10. 5% from the year - ago quarter. management shifted its focus to camel and pall mall - - the two core brands that it will retain after its planned merger with
- - resulting in higher market share for both brands. the company recently changed pall mall' s packaging, giving it an enhanced look and feel to emphasize its premium quality .
these brands' strong performance contributed to 10. 5% earnings per share growth. the stock is up more than 10% since the quarter' s results were reported. .
since lorillard' s blu e - cigarette brand will be jettisoned when the merger is completed, reynolds american is counting on its vuse to capture a large share of the emerging e - vapor market. already available in nearly 70, 000 retail outlets, vuse' s distribution will be further expanded in the early part of 2015. the brand will require further investment to increase production capacity, though management has not yet specified how much additional investment will be necessary to complete vuse' s nationwide rollout. however, cameron expects that vuse will be profitable by the middle of 2015, thus creating a tailwind for earnings growth.
