    Round or Square Cans?

    As much as I love snus, there is one thing that bugs me. Almost every time I drop a can it lands on its side and just keeps rolling away from me. Hopefully this doesn't happen on the street with the can rolling away into a sewer drain. Looking at the N&J East and West cans, I was was wondering why square cans aren't more prevalent with other snus brands. So I'm curious what the preference for can shapes is amongst snussers. Round or Square?

      I like the traditional round can. Call me old-fashioned, but whanever you have that round can noticably indenting your pocket and another with that same indent notices it, there is always that sort of "nod" that occurs.

      Or maybe I'm just a Georgia redneck :?: :lol:

                  I really prefer the round cans, just fit better in my pockets.

                  But i DO use an old Square can to carry something else. Which reminds me, time to go out back again. :lol: :lol:

                    how often are you dropping a can passed? i have used cope for years and just started using snus. so i have been carrying round cans for at least 15 years. i can only think of a few times i dropped a can.

                      lol exactly, I'd just stop dropping the can!

                      Either is fine... round cans don't raise eyebrows here in TX.

                        Not often but when it does it manages to fall on its side and have enough inertia for a roll.

                            I personally like the square cans! I'm really sick of everyone seeing my snus and automatically saying "I didn't know you chewed".. They just wont understand, even when you try and explain it.

                              I'm with Xobe. I wear my snus can pocket ring like a badge of honor. Or maybe I'm also just a Georgia redneck.

                              IMO the square can is a little pretentious as a marketing gimmick. If you don't want people to know you snus, then don't do it in public.
