    I was just wondering if anyone takes snuff any more and if so, is there anywhere to buy it in Dublin
    I was reading up about it on http://www.snuffbox.org.uk/ and it seems to be one way of giving up cigarettes, because basically it's just powdered tobacco

    I'm sure there's better way to give up cigarettes tbh.
    I'd also say the tobacco industry want you to believe its one way of "giving up"... you're still consuming a tobacoo product after all ;)

    I dont personally dont know anyone that does it.
    I suppose any of the cigar shops stock it around town, or some of the bigger off licences maybe?

    Snuff is worse than cigarettes. Uncle uses it all the time and it comes out through his pours, very visible when he is wearing a white shirt. Plus it's messy!
