Skoal contains both tobacco and fiberglass. The fiberglass makes very small cuts in the user's cheek that allows the nicotine from the skoal to enter the bloodstream. This gives the user a similar buzz to alcohol, although with a much lesser effect. And, just like alcohol, a user must use more and more snuff in order to keep getting a buzz. After a period of around a year though, it becomes almost impossible to obtain a buzz from snuff.

The above response is incorrect. Skoal nor any dipping tobacco has fiberglass in it. That is a false statement. Skoal contains tobacco that is lightly salted and flavored. There are preservatives in it as well. It doesn't seem to have as much nicotine in it as other brands such as Grizzly but it definitely gives you a tingle due to the nicotine in it. Because of it's mildness, Skoal is also less likely to cause irritation, swelling of the gums and sores in your mouth. I would like to express that I don't work for skoal. I simply a happy dipper.
