    Very easy to get hold of as you know.

    Mouth cancer awaits for anyone using them.

    It's the main tobacco in Scandinavia , it's like having 20 cigs in one go

    Although it's different,(skoal bandits) American chewing tobacco that they tried on Scotland and the North in the 80s before banning it, was used by baseball players in u.s. ..loads got mouth cancer ...

    Half of Sweden is on that stuff.

    It seemed so Victorian to me, but they ******* love it. All the time.

    Not illegal to have just to sell I think. Got plenty of Swedish friends from uni and they always bring me a box or 2 when they come over its a tradition now.

    I'd imagine a few of them use it to keep them off the cigarettes. Probably a good thing to stop players smoking, by and large.

    Tried it once in a pub back in my early Stockholm days. 2 minutes later I was running downstairs to the loos and vomiting copiously. I’m guessing that’s not the effect modern footballers are looking for but then again they’re probably made of sterner stuff than I.

    Very popular in Norway They also snort snuff like it's going out of fashion. Horrendous stuff, makes it feel like someone has shoved a chisel poker into your eyeball via your nostril. I tried some chewing tobacco once, which is very popular among hockney players in Scandinavia and Canada. Another incomprehensible substance to me. Although some people find the taste of hops repulsive, so who am I to judge?

    Snort Snuff? Give over, i haven’t seen anyone snort snuff in Norway in all my years! But snus is rife, my son uses it... only positive is it’s better than smoking!
    I tried snus once and chucked my gutt, terrible stuff

    Seriously, when I was there a lot of young lads were snorting it.
