I came to snus without ever trying American smokeless tobacco, I grew up in Beverly Hills for God's sake, we don't do that there :lol:
But I was just at the store buying a couple of cokes and they had these Timber Wolf Packs for $0.99. How could I resist. Not being a los fan, if I am gonna do American stuff, I am at least gonna try the pouches first.
It really isn't much different than snus. Pouches a bit bigger, and they smell funny. I stuck one in, lower lipped it for a bit but that just felt strange so have it in my upper lip now. No real need to spit with it. (Maybe too soon for me to be sick yet). The taste is sure different than any snus I ever had, and not particularly a good different. Tastes kinda fake to me. I can certainly taste a burnt something with it. Not horrible, but kinda like Offroad in that it tastes manufactured to me.
But damn cheap. And if ever run out (says the man with 80 tins in his freezer), I might choose this over Camel snus. I certainly would choose it over a pack of cigarettes. Probably my last experiment with American smokeless, but at least I can say that I have done it now, so that makes me happy.
But just curious. What other American smokeless comes in pouches. Anything worth trying??
