Any dippers out there?

I recently started dippin. I first started out with Copenhagen, bad move. Way too strong for a first time dipper. Then I picked up some Grizzly Wintergreen Fine Cut, nother bad move. It didnt pack well. So I then moved on to Grizzly Wintergreen Long Cut. I like it, I like the taste and it packs well. Good little buzz for a while, now it gives a nice relaxed feeling.

So any dippers out there? What do you dip/chew?

Discuss.

Dippin' never really worked for me.

I don't like it to just sit there... I like to chaw it and let it move around a little.

I started out with Beech Nut for $24.95 a carton (12-'backer pouches), then went to Starr (a little cheaper brand, but just as good) for $14.95 a carton.

I know what you mean on the buzz. I got over that when I smoked. Then I quit smoking to take up chewin', and I don't plan on quittin' till my teeth fall out.

... Which shouldn't be long.

LOL!! I havent tried any chew. I heard it tastes like licorice (sp??) and I dont really like licorice. Grizzly is pretty cheap, about 2 bux a can thats lasts me a while. I just recently grew up to bigger pinches. I got a pinch of Grizzly WG in right now and feelin pretty good. Im not ready for the green teeth yet. But I just brush my teeth alot more now that I started dippin. No signs of bad teeth yet!

Ever seen a picture of a person who had their entire jaw removed due to mouth cancer brought on by chew? I have. Not pretty--it's not just about losing your teeth.

Hey, hey now, Jason, let them have their fun, it is their life.


Besides, the use of tobacco products help keep a more balanced economy. Look at the revenue created when people know better , but do the opposite. Those people providing medical care / funeral services/litigation/ in our country, make a decent wage from this fact of life...

You know, even though i think it is a bad health move, i have to respect the guys that choose to chew or dip. The reason is, when you guys dip and chew, you aren't affecting MY health, like a smoker, for instance. This way we can both be in the same place at the same time, you can spit and do your thing, and i can still hang out with you without knowing im getting lung cancer.

So, for that, good for you guys.
