Noticed sparkling in my F&T SD

C

Went to take a pinch earlier and noticed what looked like small specks that were reflecting light in my F&T SD. Haven’t noticed this before and this was transferred from the metal tin to a glass container about a month ago. Anyone have any ideas what it might be?

Thanks

Salts. They can be visible even in super fresh snuff under good lightening, when you know what to look for ;). More of them appear with the moisture loss.

Thanks @volunge

Is it still ok to sniff snuffs where you can see the salt

Yes, if these are crystals of alkalizers. Just don’t sniff snuff, contaminated with tin corrosion compounds.
