Snus

[hzenk at PDX.EDU]

I don't really know anything about it, except that I remember being  
told or hearing that the term "snoose" is of Scandinavian origin.

Quoting Anthony Grant <Granta at EDGEHILL.AC.UK>:

> Anything to do with German Schnupftabak 'snuff', or British English   
> prison  slang 'snout' (tobacco, latterly also certain drugs)?

> One of the words for "tobacco" that we've discussed here in the past 11 (!!)
> years is "snoose".  So I was amused in an I-just-received-a-secret-message
> way, when I saw advertisements at the 7-11 store for Camel's latest product
> "Snus".  Smokeless, spitless tobacco.
