I personally like this idea. Im not a smoker and don't like breathing in the smoke from those that smoke.
But I dont think it will catch on in the bars and clubs - the pouch under the lip isn't going to look all that good!!

Kitch says 'in what way is it good?
Answer:
1. The swedish girls love the fat-lip look
2. It doesn't have the same type of negative effects for the user and non-user as smoking does.
3. It kills bacteria in your mouth - so you are less likely to be ill and more likely to have great teeth.
4. It gives you a nice feeling
5. Its relatively cheap
6. Its good if you have shares in Swedish Match, if they are allowed to sell in the EU sometime in the future some people will become instant millionaires.......
A few years ago snus had a cancer warning sign on the box, however they had to take it off as there is absolutly no prove it does cause cancer.
I'm sure snus is not particularly healthy, but then again neither is alcohol, processed food, kebabs, sports drink, training too much, living in the city, working too much......

I'm pretty sure the guys in the lab next door to me would disagree that there is "absolutely no proof" that snus causes cancer! And they are quoted in the news item...
Will? We've got proper fire now!

Most contain between 3-5% salt, and about 50% water, so they may be good for rehydrating and preventing low sodium after a run!
After looking at the manufacturers' websites, they keep making the point that 'if you’re going to use tobacco, smokeless tobacco is relatively safer'. That logic is equivalent to saying "if you're going to shoot yourself, aim for an extremity and not the head nor torso!

Did you know they have removed the word 'Gullible' from the latest edition of the Oxford English Dictionary.
