Powdered Tobacco Snuff...Do they have that in the U.S.?
My friend from Germany in Prep School used to bring me back the Eucalyptus flavor when I was a Sophomore.

I've never seen it here, although I've never looked. Just curious. I'm not looking to snort tobacco at my age. :P

1. We have Copenhagen.
They call it "snuff", but I've never seen anyone sniff it.

I can't imagine how anybody would. It tastes like shit soaked in ammonia.

2. My great grandfather used that stuff.
I think we bought it for him at the drug store. This was years ago so I don't know if it is still sold here.

4. I think so
You could still buy it in the 90's at least. One year in highschool I gave a can of it to my friend and her family. The card read, "Merry Christmas, I got you snuff." I didn't try it, but a friend of ours did.

5. Back in the '70s,
when I used to frequent a head shop in Niles called the "Devils Workshop", they sold "Cokesnuff". Made you sneeze your head off! What the hell were we thinking???
