Snuff market untapped by health concerns and habits
The tobacco industry faces little warning on snuff products though health warnings are absent on packages. Calvert Shouse notes steady snuff sales and loyal customers preferring established brands like Copenhagen and Skoal. Snuff, ground tobacco, is sold by Conwood and US Tobacco, with mint and raspberry flavors. Snuff-dipping, dating to the 1800s, involves nostril sniffing or gum use and is not marketed with gimmicks like cigarettes.
