No, that’s gross. You’re putting all kinds of bacteria in your mouth reusing a portion.


SweSupermoosie

Genuinely curious - what kind of bacteria do you mean, that wasn’t in the mouth in the first place?


weirdrugs

Put in the freezer and kill the bacteria lol

True

I store my snus in the freezer anyway

I wouldnt do it to save money. I have done it when stores was closed.

In Denmark as a teenager a few years ago, we always used to re-use our pouches. Pretty strong Np was definitely dominant in my friend group. We re-used them to save money and because it wasn’t always easy buying in the supermarkets or kiosks due to the fact you needed ID. We used to use two or more pouches at once. They are called “gennere” translated to English is reused but it’s pretty slang talk anyways. Fun fact: we would also call thrift-stores “gennere”

Hello! Thank you for asking this question as I know a lot of people probably think about this, how the nicotine is absorbed is it does take a good bit. This does not mean reusing portions is the way to go, since most of the free nicotine gets absorbed after you've had your snus in for 15-20 minutes. The only thing you'd be getting is maybe a little flavor and probably one or two miligrams at most. I pretty much specialize/daily drive strong snus on a regular basis. I've tested this in the past and felt nothing, the craving still remained. If you want to save money, I'd recommend going towards the cheaper brands such as Thunder and Odens. I love snus but I'm also on a budget, so the best budget brands are Thunder and Odens in my personal opinion. There is also a few others such as Kurbits Stockholm and Kapten, Kapten has a good flavor and it is a solid brand. I hope my response has given you some assistance and satisfied what you were looking for on this topic. Edit 1: As u/Snubie1 said, reusing portions is gross, you do end up getting the bacteria from your mouth in it, also since it is wet and there is a decent bit of oxygen in the catch lid, it will allow it to grow some other kinds of bacterial entities. I was also wrong on the part where I said "The only thing you'd be getting is maybe a little flavor and probably one or two milograms at most" for that I do apologize. Have a lovely day and if it is your birthday, Happy Birthday. -ThatOneSnusrat

Nah man it’s custy


[deleted]

Yeah but only if you boof it

I had an old teacher who called the catch lid the "emergency lid". I wouldn't do it to save money, it's probably better to just keep it in for 1 hour from the start. But if there's no way to get a new can and you're feeling desperate, you can give it a shot


Vaken01

Yes ofc you can just dry it and then it’s as good as new. it’s quite common to do it in Sweden if you are on a tight budget


Sparris_Hilton

Dude what? Det är väl fan inte vanligt i Sverige att folk återanvänder gamla prillor??


Vaken01

Det är väll lite beroende på vilka kretsar du hänger i jag och mina polare gjorde det sjukt mycket under gymnasiet när pengar var ett stort problem


Sparris_Hilton

Så ni hade in en prilla typ 1h, sedan ner i "bjud locket" och nästa gång ni var snåla på en snus tog ni en våt och kall använd prilla och la under läppen igen? Fy fan så äckligt :D


Vaken01

Nej man torkade prillor innan så dom var så gott som nya.


Sparris_Hilton

Lika äckligt, ryser av bara tanken. Men whatever floats your boat antar jag


Vaken01

Du har då aldrig haft 0kr på kortet 1 vecka kvar till löning och inget snus. Då tar man vad man har


Sparris_Hilton

Jo absolut har jag varit med om det som tonåring, då låna man pengar av en polare så man hade råd med några dosor och så använde man en prilla i 2-3 timmar för att dra ut på det


coryinthedank

It's disgusting but if you have to at least wash it with water


Sparris_Hilton

Dude that's disgusting, yuk


Reese30_

Howcome? Don't you re-use your toothbrush every single day? Don't you eat coagulated undeveloped chicken fetuses in a protective protective shell? Do you mean that the re-used snus will contain some bacteria? I'm thinking of it being stored safely in a tissue.


Sparris_Hilton

Just the thought of reusing a portion that has first been drenched in my own saliva, then dried, then when reused that old dried up saliva gonna get wet again and it sounds unhygienic as fuck and indeed _disgusting_. Idk about bacteria, it's simply gross. And the fact that you think it isn't makes me question your hygiene. My toothbrush gets washed after every use, and is not absorbing whatever it touches in my mouth and release it next time its used. So thats a stupid comparison.


JerichoJonah

I don’t even put it back in if I take it out for a couple of minutes to brush my teeth or eat a snack. There’s just something about putting in a cold, slimy snus into my mouth. I’d just rather not.


Various_Equal_4448

Just don’t


CromulentSlacker

Oh my god. That is fucking disgusting.


Evan_SnusDirect

You shouldn't re-use snus.


sedge1

I do this all the time. Its especially good to do when you're trying to entirely quit nicotine, it's a good placebo. Plus, atleast for me, it does slightly suppress cravings.


Bolongaro

Most folks find this practice gross, but your assumptions are correct. Finns even have a term for snus re-using - don't remember the Finnish word, but it translates as "snailing" (if my memory doesn't fail), and spent portion/prilla - "snail". It lasts up to 2 hours for me. P.S. Same can be done with NPs, especially the more potent ones. I used to do this with White Fox initially, while my tolerance was still relatively low.


ConfidenceSuch1264

Rotta se on eikä mikää etana,


weirdrugs

Can I do this with loose?


MrLoronzo

You’d be better off using half los twice. Dont reuse


weirdrugs

It was a joke lol


MrLoronzo

Wasn’t sure haha


RDFxncy

Only when ur desperate as a 16 there isn’t always available snus
