ok just to save forum space i thought about making one topic for all questions about snuff so newbies can read and learn without asking! My question is how much are you ment to snuff as in do you snuff a pea size bit or bigger or smaller ? I have given up smoking with snuff but still get the odd craving four or five times a day now and think maybe im not using enough i use maybe half a pea size per nostral or less sometimes its just i cant watch anyone take it outside as not many people round here do it so had to ask ! Many thanks
I take one or two pinches per nostril each time. Maybe 5-7 grams a day on a good day?

It depends on the snuff and on the person. I probably take a lot less since I am not coming off of ciggies. I find I use a different amount depending on what kind of snuff it is, menthol or HDT, or whatever. Just use what gives you the right feeling in your nose and the effect you want. If you feel bad, slow down. It’s supposed to be an enjoyable thing like having a tasty food, not a bad habit that you don’t get pleasure from. I enjoy each and every pinch and if I ever started doing it as a habit without enjoyment I would just stop completely.
bigblue1 thank you so much you comments are worth gold dust to me fantastic il go read it now this forum is great full of so many nice people willing to take time out to help other people thanks bigblue1
Dave. I wouldn’t fret over how much snuff you take. I probably go through 3-5 grams a day (supposedly the smash boxes Mike sells through Marscigars are 5 grams for comparison). Snuff’s too nice to over think it… Just pinch what you enjoy, and if you need something to avoid a cig, take another pinch. You don’t even want to know how much snuff Troutstroker goes through… 
thanks merdock yes its a hard question to answer realy about how much to take ! looking back on the old posts i was amazed to see 55 grams is what they used to take i had to read it 3x ha ha i would be toque’s and snuff store’s favorate customer using that much it would prob knock me out after 30 grams ha ha thanks everyone
I quit smoking too, using snuff. Very simply take a small pinch every time the craving comes. After a day or two (at least for me) the craving for a cigarette had changed to one for snuff. 90% of the crave for a cigarette is psychological I believe - the ritual of lighting up. Soon you will begin to enjoy the ritual of taking out your nice little snuff box, tapping it, opening it - pinching - and the lift is awesome. A little bit of perserverance in the beginning is needed, but it’s worthwile! :o) I have no clue how much snuff I use? Sometimes I pinch every 5 minutes - other days only a few times a day. It varies.
thanks very much today is a good day to not smoke at all not even a puff as i just had a tooth out so not worth the risk of infection so also i had my toque peanut butter arrive today not tried it yet but smells so good just waiting for my hole were my tooth was to heal for a few hours first lol
I had a tooth out a few weeks ago… Have to admit I had my snuff box out as I was leaving the dentist’s! Doesn’t seem to have done me any harm.
Ha ha ermtony, I did exactly the same last time I left the dentist :o)
