I'm going back to portions

[holnrew]

Tins of portions seem to last much longer as I can slap a portion in and forget about it. And the strong portions really help my cigarette cravings. At the moment I several cans each of portion and loose and I find myself reaching for the portions more. I expect I'll still get Ettan, LD and Gustavus in loose, but I've decided portions suit me better.

Do I lose man points?

There's nothing wrong with portions. I'm using almost 100% lös now, but I used to use almost 100% portion. Whatever works best for you :^)

I did the same thing a while back. Went from about a 50/50 split to 100% portion use. After about 6 weeks I started to really miss the los. Now I use los more than ever (about 70/30 in favor of los).

It's like finding a long lost friend. You'll be back...

My story exactly. At first, I couldn't understand why anyone would want to do portions. Now they just taste better to me. And with all the strong options, I kept seeing myself always reaching for a portion. The los era is dead in the world of dead rabbit. I think los was very crucial to me for quiting smoking though. It introduced a ritual that I still needed with my nicotine intake.

Since many females may be a bit repulsed by loose you may be able to accrue man points.

Don't listen to Xobeloot.

I have always been a vocal portion guy. I'm happy for those that like los, I really am. And I tried it, over a few months a did quite a bit. But I simply like portions more. They taste better to me, are simple and I don't have to ever think about them. And every single portion is like my little friend :lol:

If this forum has stressed anything over the years, it that snus is about as individual as it gets. What I like, someone else might not. So it's never about what you are "supposed" to like, it is just about what you like the most.

And if portions it is, more power to you! :wink:

I'm about 80/20 in favor of portion. I do atlot of running around to oil rigs now (instrumentation engineer) and i get dirty as ****, i hate using icetools/pris masters the pris isn't the same as hand baking. But since i am covered in invert, oil, hydraulic fluid and many chemicals i tend to be using alot of portions. Even when i get home i use portions more, its just habit now.

On a different note i have found my self in "the bush" for 3 days longer then expected and have been smoking (theres one little store on the summit of the mountain this rig is at, not dip! and i ran out of snus). **** no idea why i smoked for so damn long.

I transitioned to Los and very rarely use portions but I do enjoy one every morning on my way to work and every evening on my way home. Then I Los all night.

I am really 100% portions. At work I was way to worried about smiling or talking and having tobacco all over my teeth & mouth. I was so worried about how it looked that really couldn't enjoy the snus. I kept going to the bathroom to check my smile.

Secondly I found that my with each pris, I would user a little bit more thus it was harder to conceal. I ended up look like a hair lip (no offense to any hair lips snusers intended).

I find portions for home use so boring. I like having that busy task every hour or so of preparing a fresh pinch when I'm chillin'. But it's true, the loose does go quicker than the portions. I go through two cans of loose to every one of portions.

[holnrew]

Yeah I find portions taste better too... And yes they are more acceptable to womenfolk.

Where do I stick the manpon :shock:

[sychodelix]

I've almost totally quit using loose at all. The portions are just so much more convenient. You'd think you'd get a lot more out of a can of loose than portions, but not necessarily whenever you tend to use at least 2 grams for every pris/pinch.

The mangina, where else? :roll:

[burningcow422]

I kind of prefer portions over loose. Only reason I use loose is because I find I get more out of a tin vs just 24 or so portions. I like controlling the size. Usually have a few tins of loose around but mostly portions.
