18th Snuff World Championships, which were recently held in Germany.<\/p>\n<p>Around 90 participants &ndash; from Germany, Austria, the US and Switzerland &ndash; had to sniff as much snuff tobacco as they could in 60 seconds, with points awarded for the amount taken and the cleanliness of the snuff site.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently the size of a person's nose does not matter, which means anyone with a big schnoz does not have an unfair advantage.<\/p>\n<p>This means it is all about technique and so individuals would do well to practice their snuffing method.<\/p>\n<p>Personally, it's not a competition I will be looking to enter anytime soon, but each to their own.<\/p>\n<p>And one thing's for sure, whoever managed to win, their prize shouldn't be snuffed at.<\/p>\n<p>Posted by Mark Wilkins<img
