A few months ago, I thought I should only have a couple cans open at any one time. My reason: I didn't want the snus to get old and dry up.
Then someone here said: "Do you really think you're affecting the freshness of the snus by breaking the little perforation around the can?"
Well, that made a lot of sense, actually. Until recently. I like a Catch Eucalyptus at night. So it takes me 24 days to finish a can. I just finished a can last night. Those last few portions were really dry and stale. I opened the new can and was reminded of that wonderful "new snus smell."
So what's the problem? My theory: it is the constant opening and closing of the can, introducing new air into the can, which causes the snus to go bad. So today I start a new experimental method. I will open a new can and place 6 portions in a separate container. When those are used, I will get 6 more, and so on. So the original can will only have been opened 4 times.
I hope this will allow my portions to stay fresher, but we'll see. I just wanted to share this idea, in case anyone is experiencing anything similar.
