Swedish snuff

I thought snuff was inhaled but Swedish "snus" comes in a pouch like a small teabag which is placed under the top lip enabling the nicotine to seep into the gums. Anyway, it's very popular in Sweden following the public smoking ban and the unwillingness to nip outside for a cigarette during the freezing winters, so much so that 20% of the 1.2m snus users are women. One Swedish woman says that its main advantage is that it doesn't make your clothes smell but adds, "Just remember to brush your teeth a lot, otherwise you'll look like an old hag."
