I also know that dip has tiny pieces of fiberglass in it to cut your gums so that it gives you a buzz.

Are you in middle school or something? This is the bullshite kids used to say about that age; however, it can't be further from the truth. Completely false information. The fact is that if you actually put fiberglass in dip it would reduce the delivery of nicotine from the bleeding/inflammation.

Also, I dipped for a little over 10 years and recently decided to quit cold turkey. I've made it a month so far. My advice, don't ever start.

Damn near impossible to quit

Well then you should know that there is no fiberglass in dip, or any smokeless tobacco for that matter. It's a made up myth used by anti tobacco people as a scare tactic and by 15 year olds to feel like a bad arse.

Tried dipping in high school but didn't do it very long. Glad I didn't take to it, it seems like a bitch to walk away from.
