Thought this warranted a thread in itself.

How English football got hooked on snus: ‘Players don’t understand the threat of it’

Manchester United and Manchester City players have been pictured with the tobacco product and despite its health risks, snus is everywhere

This seems to be a bit of an issue around football at the moment. I wonder if any Brentford players partake in it. Not that I've seen any indication it has.

I wonder if it gives a slight stimulus without being a banned substance, and without the detrimental impact of smoking on performance

Said to have a calming effect ie Henrik Larsson had a bit before taking a penalty in 94 world cup. But seems to be very addictive and commonplace.

I've tried snus, was given to me by a friend from Sweden. It is quite strong and made my gum go numb. I could have had a sensitivity to it of course, but it packed a decent punch.

I thought the title was referring to my state between asleep and awake (and vice versa).

Its everywhere, seems to be the latest craze following on from Vaping. Cant be good having it so close to your gums for long periods.

There's a couple of different types of snus. Wet & loose or in a little tea bag like thing. Very common place in Scandinavia, especially Sweden. If anyone wants some let me know. I'm in Stockholm this weekend.
p.s. just another form of tabacco..
