WEG. just over two years ago I got interested in snuff. I read all the reviews on the Yahoo group, nasalsnuffbox. I mean ALL the reviews. Finally found a can of WEG in a sketchy part of town in one of the chain drug stores. Cost less than $3. I sat in my truck and pinched some up. I knew to take it slow from reading posts, so it didn’t kill me. It was amazing! I loved the smokiness and of course the nicotine. I ordered a bunch of WoS from Mars which I enjoyed, and I didn’t pick up the WEG for another six months. Now American snuffs are part of my daily rotation.

I was trying all tobacco products when I was 16. I went to my favorite tobacco shop (wonderfull place that no longer exsists) and saw the tins of dean swift said what the heck are these the owner of the shop demonstrated so I bought a tin liked it and bought three more convincing my friends to each buy three or so tins to makes sure we could try every flavour in the shop (unfortunatly just the full dean swift line). Then snuff disapeared from my town :frowning: then I found mars then this forum and it’s been happy times since then

ROAM, I’m with you. Gawith Apricot! Loved it but it made my nose run like crazy! Kept at it though and finally came across Rooster. The rest is history. Heaven ever since! LOL. Tom NicotineRush.com

When I was about 14 or so I got a tin of Dr. Rumney’s medicated when I was at the tobacco shop buying some cloves. I had no idea what to do or how much to take. I took a big pinch and huffed it. I thought my head was going to explode. My eyes just about melted and I lost about a gallon of fluids from my nose and eyes. After I recuperated in an hour or so I thought not bad. I took a smaller pinch and sniffed slow. I was hooked.

I can’t recall any certain Kodak moment but me and my friends use to occasionally pick up a tin since they were right there on the candy aisle. Back then it was very easy for a kid to get tobacco, especially snuff as some of the tins looked like candy. I just remember it always turned out the same way with an incredible eye-ache and lots of tears and sneezing to go along with it. I couldn’t figure out why the hell anyone would pay to do this, but it never stopped me from trying again. It always appeared to be a cheap, convenient and discreet way of using baccy.

I am glad to know I’m not the only one with masochistic tendencies.

My first was Poschl’s Raspberry Menthol. It was given to me by my boss. This one didn’t burn at all, but sure made me sneeze. That was about 6 years ago, and I haven’t been able to find the Raspberry Menthol since. I’ve got some plain Raspberry which has a bit of menthol to it, but if my memory serves me the Raspberry Menthol was much better. Does anyone know if they still make this one or where I can get some?

Mars and mysmokeshop both have the ozona raspberry.

I’ve got a tin of the Ozona Raspberry, but the first snuff I had said Raspberry Menthol on it. I wonder if they’re the same thing, but the name changed?
