I worked with a couple of Swedish lads in the 90s and they used this. It was a kind of badge to have the round tin markings on your jeans back pocket.

Always remember away trips to Sweden/Norway watching Eng most locals seemed to use it ,lads and girls ,though not ( back then anyway ) in any sort of “fashion” way . Tried it once and almost knocked me about for about 30mins like a dizzy headache . It only ever used to legal in a couple of countries but dunno how it’s it’s regulated . Rashford amongst other high end players have been seen with it .

A bunch of us had a go at a pouch each earlier this year, whilst having a beer at my buddies, and it quickly turned into what could only be described as a vomit party

Is it actual snus that is sold in the UK?
I thought snus contains tobacco. I'm sure the ones retailed in the UK only contains nicotine but no tobacco.

I bought a tin once to try it, did nothing for me to be honest except burn the underside of my lip, not something I can see me repeating but you never know
