Hi everyone,

I’ve recently bought G&H’s CM snuff for the first time, it came in a 25g metal tin that was unopened and vacuum-sealed. Once opening the tin for the first time I’ve noticed this plastic thing inside covered by snuff… I’m guessing that’s not normal?

After giving it some thought, it looks like a cooked version of a baby’s dummy/pacifier…

I’ve sent an email to G&H but received no reply so far, should I throw away the whole tin?

Thanks!

Can you show us THE THING and the snuff, please?

So far I only have got my snuff occasionally condimented with eyelashes, parts of insects and metal shavings. And one sachet of sheesha baccy was boosted with pieces of rubber. Trivia, I would say…

Now pacifier is really something!

Here are two more photos including the tin of snuff. I’ve rinsed the object in question off with water in order to identify it better, apart from that everything is just as I found it.

To me it looks like a pacifier, however I can’t picture how it might have gotten in there.

Maybe a kid threw it into a load of ground up tobacco… but how’d it get so deformed?

Could it be the lining from the vacuum sealed tin and something went wrong in the processes of sealing or pasteurizing? I have noticed a white rubber banding on the edges of SG tins, maybe it is something like that, but gone wrong.

It looks like a piece of the rubber stuff they use to seal the inside of the tin. Pretty weird. They need to make it right with you and send you a sampler of all their snuffs.

I second that, looks like a lump of lid gasket material. I advice against using this snuff. It might be contaminated with ftalates, BPA and other nasty chemicals.

That sir, is a bonafide nipple. No doubt.

I’m with Zebra on this.  Looks like some nicotine fiend baby was sampling your snuff before you got it and dropped his pacifier in by mistake.

   Another reason why they shouldn’t let babies be customs agents.
