Leaders in oral healthcare have expressed increasing concern over the sale of “oral tobacco”—small white pouches placed in the mouth for nicotine consumption—at convenience stores and other outlets. While switching from cigarettes might reduce the risk of lung cancer, the risks of oral cancer and other health issues cannot be ruled out. Although oral cancer is relatively easy to detect early, advanced cases often require major surgery that can radically alter a person’s facial appearance and make eating and speaking difficult.

Guess I’ll just snort it through my nose then.

The attacks on alcohol and tobacco are relentless. Don’t young people just not smoke anymore anyway?

If you’re willing to go that far just to get a nicotine fix, you’re out of your mind.

Chewing tobacco has been known to cause oral cancer for ages, so what’s up with Sweden being so quick to embrace “snus”? Is the mentality basically: “As long as you’re not exhaling secondhand smoke, it’s fine if you’re the one dying”?

Cigarettes are a nuisance because of the fire, the smoke, and the cigarette butts. My family’s house actually caught fire once because my father was careless with his cigarettes.

Is Nicorette dangerous too?
22: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/07/05(Sun) 10:50:20.98 ID:RiN7jiXm0
Since it doesn’t cause secondhand smoke, only the user suffers. In that case, there shouldn’t be any problem.

Only middle-aged folks are smoking it anyway, so who cares. Young people are more valuable.

Whatever death a nicotine addict chooses to meet is none of our business. If they can’t get their fix, they’d probably say life isn’t worth living anyway.

What about Nicotinell? Is that okay?

That’s for medical treatment; long-term use is a no-go.

They’re getting cancer by choice, so can we please stop covering it with health insurance?

Where do you even buy “snus” anyway?

Tobacco was constantly labeled as dangerous, and it finally led to designated smoking areas, but why is alcohol—which is just as dangerous—left totally unchecked?

So, as someone who uses a traditional Kiseru pipe, does that make me the winner here?

There’s no choice but to treat the nicotine addiction.

The people selling tobacco are the worst, but the government is the one giving them permission.

They should just raise the price to 5,000 yen a pack.

You should be able to realize it’s a severely dangerous chemical from the start. People who are that thick are really beyond saving.

You’re smoking something every day that you know is bad for your body, so you’re prepared for the consequences, right?
122: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/07/05(Sun) 12:25:32.81 ID:+DoyA70K0
Who’s putting out products like these? This “addiction business” is disgusting.
123: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/07/05(Sun) 12:29:50.62 ID:EXha0VUN0
Instead of mumbling about how tobacco isn’t bad for you, why not just say, “I hate this life and want to die early, that’s why I smoke.”
130: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/07/05(Sun) 12:41:23.05 ID:jTxm8rZA0
They keep harping on about tobacco when there’s no proven causal link, it’s a bit much.

Probably just doctors using their standard scare tactics by comparing tiny sample sizes again.
143: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/07/05(Sun) 12:57:10.71 ID:fBg+4Uxf0
Why don’t they just make environments where it’s normal to smoke?

You can smoke if you want, just don’t exhale it. It stinks.

The ultimate stupidity is countries that put grotesque images on tobacco packages. I mean, if you’re going to go that far, just don’t sell it! LOL.

> Because it’s kept in the mouth for a long time
They’re conflating this with traditional chewing tobacco from the old days. Medical societies shouldn’t be issuing statements with that level of ignorance.
