Hang in there till you can get some more Smokey!

I've tried that fake stuff a couple times when I just wanted that feeling of having something "there", and I liked it for that purpose.

Hey, I just remembered something. There was a couple times I got really desperate and ended up dipping the contents of an herbal tea bag....just cut the bag open and put the contents in your lip. It helped me get through the craving.

I quit dipping, and smoking 10 years ago. I still think about getting a big ole pinch. Stuff is the devil.

ETA:

I would just quit cold turkey. Any "tool" will just delay your progress.

This

It's been over twenty for me. Never smoked but did Skoal on Walt Garrison and Earl Campbell's suggestion.

To this day there are times I want a dip.

Cold turkey.

I used seeds, but I chewed Levi instead of dip. I also drank a lot of water. every time I had a craving, I would down enough cold water to make me feel full and until the craving passed. I still crave it when I'm out hunting, but the cravings have tapered off in the past few years. Its been 5 since I've had a chew. I would never go back. Good luck bro.

I quit just over 3 months ago and putting an altoin in my lip and letting it dissolve helped b/c I got a burn from it and now keeping a toothpick in throughout the day is helping. The first 2-3 weeks were really tough, but getting much easier.

I live in North La - but they sell direct to walmart so I would think any of them would carry it, just a matter of finding it I guess. Mine always has 10 rolls on the shelf.

I have a friend who quit 20 years ago that swears when all his kids are educated and he is 70 he is going to start back.

Says it won't matter then.
