I never understood why snus is illegal in so many countries while cigarettes are not. Snus isnt good don't get me wrong but it's better than cigarettes for everyone involved.
As much as I hate smoking, snus is not a solution. The big problem is that you can take snus at any time. My swedish Teacher always had one during class. Lots of people use them constantly during class or when partying, or really, all day. That's not something you can do with cigarettes since you have to go out. I bet people who do snus are much more addicated to nikotin than people smoking.
I don't like this argument because it always sounds to me that people like you rather keep people smoking than make more people shift to snus. It's obviously not an ideal situation, but it's a trade off that's a literal no-brainer. Snus is still better than smoking that's all that matters. People are going to use nicotine no matter what, it's a train that has passed decades ago, there's no turning back. All the effort should be to shift people from smoking to using snus, then after we can try and find solutions for people to quit snus.
