A few small items before I tell you about the pizza… Yesterday I bought six rolls of the new General Classic Blend. Here’s why: It’s good. It was a great deal. And I’m not a hypocrite. I insisted you buy it, so I did, too. 60 tins of this stuff is 900 portions. If that [...]
Two new General snus are set to launch Monday — General Classic Blend and General Nordic Mint — online and in three cities for trials at convenience stores. These two snus will be, for all intents and purposes, the snus you may be able to get at a seven-eleven in the next year or so [...]
A few days ago, I wrote about how to fly. Here’s the result: That’s me. From Austin to Chicago, I slept. And on the way back, I slept. A couple weeks ago, from Austin to Salt Lake, I slept. To Twin Falls, Zzzzz. To Sacramento, Zzzzz. And back to Austin. Yep, I look like a [...]
I was thinking “so what?” when I heard the mini tins got smaller. I don’t use mini snus, and the difference seemed minor. Well, I was wrong. The new tins are actually much smaller, but most photos don’t seem to convey just how little and adorable these bastards are. So I’ve take several photos of [...]
Good post over at Tobacco Truth. The upshot is that three out of the four federally mandated warnings on smokeless tobacco are bullshit. Yes, we knew that. But Dr. Rodu sums it up here very nicely.
Imagine a pile of 4,380 potions of snus. By my rough estimates, that’s my use in a year… 182.5 tins worth. I could easily be off by 25%. No one has ever accused me of having OCD. I don’t collect hordes of used tins, and I don’t keep detailed records. Google says that 4,380 grams [...]
Back before I started this blog, I used to fly to Los Angeles every month for work. Other than turning me into a douchebag, I also picked up some moderate traveling acumen. This past week I took a little trip out through Idaho, Nevada and California, and I’ve been thinking about what is absolutely necessary [...]
Looks like the snuson.com shop is up and running. Free shipping right now through May 19. The question is: will my wife kill me if I order more Roda. Probably not. It’s worth the risk. Here’s some help if you are in the same position: If no —> Order. If yes —> Move out. Then [...]
Last week, a gaggle of anti-smokeless tobacco lunatics descended on Austin for a conference. I didn’t try to hang out with them, although I did poke a little fun at them on my twitter feed. Today, I ran across a write up that’s not too horrible on drugfree.org. Even though the author of the article [...]
You’ve probably heard the news already… The new snus out in Portland, Boise and Pittsburgh is Ettan loose and original portions. Even though they’re calling it snuff, it’s snus. We can assume that Swedish Match wants sale data for using “snuff” instead of “snus.” Also, there’s a possibility of this someday being available at more [...]
