would it work for quitting cigarettes


Worked for me. See my post above. I started on 8mg and tapered down to 4mg. It was pretty easy.

They say to stop dipping is harder to kick than crack. It was the hardest thing I ever got off of but dont need to do crack to compare.

My take. Quitting dip is much harder than cigarettes.

I've been on alp for a few months, really like the flavors. They have a classic although I've never tried that one

Lots of good news stories, congrats. But throat cancer is one of the worst cancers out there & that is saying a lot. There was a former long-time-dipper MBL player who had it & he traveled the leagues just showing his face as a warning. He had no face below his nose. Between the cancer itself & the chemo treatments, he lost half his face. My then college-aged son used to dip & I made him look at photo of that ball player. Son quit cold turkey & it's been 15+ yrs now dip free..

I quit dipping 15 years ago. I was around 10 cans of Copenhagen snuff a week. I quit when I had the flu. Only way I could. I looked up and had been over a week. Times I tried before I got headaches and gave in. I hope these things don’t just create more addiction.

Congrats. How big are the pouches compared to Zyn? I dipped for about 15 years and quit two years ago. I would go through a can a day. I prefer Rogue over Zyn because their pouches are bigger and it gives me the feeling that I still have a dip in.

Your dentist is probably happy, too - assuming you've been to one.

Went to Zyns about six months ago.

Pretty awesome. Also cut drinking alcohol to near zero. Have lost nearly 20 lbs.

I don’t know if there’s some unknown side effects coming, but so far it’s like a miracle pouch.

Same for me. 30 plus years of Copenhagen and one day a buddy told me to try one. I haven't looked back and I save about $25/week.

I use Rogue, but I've tried them all. Rogue is just cheaper at the gas station by my house. Although about every 1 in 10 cans has 3 or 4 pouches busted in them and that's annoying.

I dipped one time.

Had to lick the dog's arse to get the taste out of my mouth.

I like on! And Zyns

I don’t know if it’s wrong but I’ll put 8 of the 8 mg on! Pouches in my mouth when I cut grass or when I go in a hike.

Christ Almighty.

You might be well served by ordering some snus from Sweden - I think I've seen 120mg pouches on there. There is some OTer that rocks those, can't remember who.

I wish this existed when I quit. Dipping was the Hardest thing I have ever had to give up.

It gives you a hell of a buzz … I still spit though like it’s dip. I’m told youre not supposed to do that with these.
