What is Plug Tobacco?
In the world of smokeless tobacco products, there are several different forms available for consumption. Snuff is cured tobacco which has been chopped into loose leaf form, while plug tobacco has been combined with sweeteners such as molasses and pressed into blocks. Both snuff and plug tobacco end up between the user’s lower cheek and bottom gum, but snuff is packed or “dipped” by hand while plug tobacco is cut or bitten off a larger square or “plug” first.
