SNUS smush


When I first saw this ad I was like what the heck is SNUS? It looked like a gum advertisement. And then I saw the Camel and I was even more confused. And then I saw the "WARNING: This product may cause mouth cancer" and I kinda giggled to myself. How can you advertise something and then have to put that on there. But anyways, this is the definition of SNUS:


According to Wikipedia, snus (pronounced snoose) is:
…a moist powder tobacco product that is consumed by placing it under the upper lip for extended periods of time. It is a form of snuff that is used in a manner similar to American dipping tobacco, but typically does not result in the need for spitting…The sale of snus is illegal in the European Union, but due to an exemption in Sweden. It is still manufactured and consumed primarily in Sweden and Norway.


Very interesting. I guess since smoking is out chewing is in? hmmm...YUCK.
