You can't chew in the EU? Thats odd.

On the other hand I have heard from a lot of guys that quitting chewing is harder than quitting smoking. I used chew as a crutch for a short time to cut down in my smoking, I don't know if snuff would help you the same way. The main reason it worked for me is because, I didn't like to spit in public so it helped my to pass on my nicotine fix thereby cutting down. Once I cut down I used lower nicotine and finally nicotine free tobacco cigarettes to break the addiction cycle, then I just quit.

I thought about trying snuff in the same role, but it isn't commonly available here. Since I was using it as a quit aid I wanted something I could find at the corner store. In America you can get chew/dip anywhere.

We are talking about dry, nasal snuff right?

Not the moist "snuff" like Skoal or copenhagen, what we call dip here.
I only ask because in addition to the above there is also chewing tobacco which is like shredded leaf or compressed plug tobacco.

Using both the dip and the chew is generally considered chewing tobacco, even though you really only chew the chew while the dip is just sucked.

I used to love the Peach Skoal, and the Apple wasn't bad either.
