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.  

No relation to the CJ word k'aynuL.  :)
