20, Male, US One guy who dipped knew about it from his baseball coach he was the one who told me it doesn’t cause your nose to fall off, snuff is kind of a submarket with poschl being the only real available brand at a couple tobacco shops before they pulled out which will hopefully be replaced by toque.

This would be more of an internet user/snuffer survey anyhow.

There is an African contingent spread across many tribes and countries that doesn’t have much of a voice and would be probably next to impossible to quantify. From the small amount I’ve read over the years it seems snuff can have deeper social meaning for some African people than for us - ie, used at specific functions etc. I grew up in the North of England and was aware that many Indian people, especially the older end, took snuff. I’ve also seen snuff and other oral tobaccos used by Asian people in London communities. Again, I think it might be difficult to quantify use in this group. Snuff is also used in Tibet and Mongolia.
19, Male, UK. Pretty much everyone I’ve ever come across knows what snuff is. I’ve never met anyone else who takes it, but I’ve had a few people take a pinch, and a lot of questions about it. But I’ve never met anyone who didn’t know what I was doing, or talking about.

23, Male, England. Again, the majority of the people who see me taking a pinch know what I’m doing, usually gets a “I didn’t know that stuff was still going” or something similar though! Edit: Whereabouts in the North are you Snuffster? I’m sure I read a previous thread were you said Burnley. I could be thinking of somebody else though. If so, I’m just down the road in Darwen.

Ah cool, interesting. You’re not one of those unfortunate Burnley fans are you?
Thats unavoidable to a certain extent. You can take the boy out of Turf Moor etc etc…
Ha! Well an unfortunate (at the moment) Blackburn fan here! The way were going I expect we’ll be playing you again next season!
42, female, London, UK, I have friends who will take a pinch now and again and I have actually converted 3 people to snuff since I started in about 2008.
