    First week or so of snusin

    So I recently decided to quit smoking(about two weeks ago) and about 4 days into it i was craving a cigarette and overall not feeling to well, I went into a gas station and noticed that camel came out with a new snus, now I had heard of snus from a friend and at first it didn't appeal to me for the simple fact it reminded me of dipping far too much. But craving some nicotine and trying not to smoke, I decided to try out the new camel snus. I got the frost flavor at first and loved it, the mini portions didn't seem to give me a buzz or much effect so I started researching and found out about some real snus. I decided to place my order and got a nice little starter pack in a little less than a week.

    Now that I've gotten to try real snus, man is it so much better than camel snus. I couldn't understand how people call it too sweet but now I see. I opened up a phantom blue right away, and it reminded me completely of an earl grey tea, which i love. I was using that and drinking tea constantly and im kinda burned out from it now, but the General portion is quite nice as well. I'm excited to try out the Ettan as soon as these get low enough to warrant opening another one. So far all the ones ive had are great. And I suggest to anyone who finds camel snus to defiantly give true Swedish snus a try.

    Its also funny too, It seems like now i notice snus so much more. On my campus today i decided to go to the bathroom and noticed someone tossed a spent portion in the toilet(kind enough of them to not flush) I've completely cut out smoking too, I notice I get the urge to grab a can of snus instead of the cigarretes now and find it alot less appealing. Also I've noticed my mood has RADICALLY improved. I'm more upbeat and happy even back from my smoking days, and another positive is my intake of water has jumped through the roof, being new i sometimes get that dull burning sensation in the back of my throat.

    Anyway, what are some good flavors to try now for a new user of snus to test my pallet. My order came with some general(regular and white) a can of ettan phantom blue and a couple other ones.

    Welcome to the new world of snus.

    Today is my 30th day of not smoking a cigarette, don't want one, don't need one. I don't snus too much, but enough that it has replaced cigarettes. A life savior, litterally.

    Welcome to the forum!

      Another long-time smoker here who has been smoke free for a month and a half. Wonderful thing, that snus. Good luck and enjoy!

        Welcome to the forum Racerei.

        Best advice is look through the thread where people list their top 5, or even better, go to this thread and try everyone's favorites.

          Welcome racerai,
          I myself am fairly new to snus, I quit smoking about 3 weeks ago. It's a great hobby, I'm glad you are enjoying it!

            I've also quit smoking with snus for two weeks now. I'm a 15 year smoker and have tried everything. So far with snus i don't even miss it. This is the easiest go at it i've ever had. I started with the camel but ordered some skruf a few days later. I was a little surprised and concerned at first because of how different it was from the camel i.e. "sweet" but i stuck with it and now the camel tastes funny! Cant wait for my sampler pack to get here! (better get here tomorrow or i'm going to assault the post man)
