pauldavis Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Now in an effort to quick smoking (cigarettes, I will always smoke hookah), I have decided to ween myself off the nicotine with dip (Peach Skoal to be exact). I was just wondering what kinds of differences there are between shisha and dip (a.k.a. smokeless tobacco). I realize the dip probably does not have glycerine in it, but other than that I am not sure as to the differences. I am not trying to smoke my dip or anything, but I was just curious.

Skimo Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 yeah skoal doesnt have the flavor it says it does, the apple,peach and different shit like that taste nothing like em, although they're good imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unleashtheclown Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 skoal tastes nasty, get some low nicotine shisha to wein off the cancer sticks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oggie505 Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 dip is so much worse, unless u use the roster packs, but normal dip, like skoal..etc.. actually is shredded in a way it cuts your gums slightly and u get a greater amount of nicotine in your system and all the other crap they put in it. A lot of my buds dipped when in Iraq, and got hooked fast. I just stuck to smokeing cigars. But stay away from dip!!You may want to try the mint type of dips, they sell it at k mart and wallmart, it is made from shredded mint leaves, and a lto of people use it to quit tobbacco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unleashtheclown Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Also another tip would be to not buy cigarettes again so that You wont have them to tempt You. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skimo Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 lol skoal isnt bad, atleast the taste lol, it prolly is worse bc of it cutting your gums to get the nicotine in your system, try some chew like levi garret, im pretty sure that doesnt cut u up and it taste pretty good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oggie505 Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 yea, chew is not that bad in my opinion, I sometimes do it when flying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukasa Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Trading one dangerous, disgusting habit for another. Nice. Dip is utterly fucking repulsive, a few of my friends dip like its nobodys business, and the acute damage it does to their gums and inner lips is disgusting, big sores, little pus-filled bumps, receding gumlines, not at all attractive. Just chew the nicorette gum and smoke hookah, and remind yourself that if you're going to get lung cancer, you might as well get it from smoking something that doesn't taste like ass.

unleashtheclown Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Almost everywhere I've worked there has been someone who does chewing tobacco, I personally think its disgusting especially when they spit into a bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pauldavis Posted September 20, 2006 Author Share Posted September 20, 2006 wow, i did not want this to go this way...look i dip ocassionally and that is my choice, i am not a fiend for it, i do it like 2-3 times a day nowwhat i was really wondering about were the similarities in the production process, it is a mere curiostiyplus i cannot afford the nicorette gum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calcartman Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Pauldavis; nicotine gum now is cheaper than cancer later.2-3 times a day is enough to kill you later too.That said, I smoke hookah, so i'm killing myself as well.Production-wise, your tobacco is dipped in a flavoring, same as ours. Your flavor is designed to fade, ours is designed to burn. I wouldn't smoke yours and i wouldn't chew ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dikydave Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 personally, i wouldnt recommend it, i work security and see alot of truckers go in and out...and you can tell the ones that chew. the receding gumline is just the scariest damn thing ive ever seen...ugh......but ya, if ur gunna do it, go old school like levi garrett which isnt that bad, kinda like a nicotine syrupy pancake.

Buford Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 The Skoal fruit flavors are generally crap. Mint and Straight are the only two that are worthwhile.FWIW, dip usually consists of tobacco, flavoring, water, salt, and possibly a humectant like propylene glycol. It does not contain fiberglass or other crap you might have heard.US made dip contains much less nitrosamine (a known carcenogen) than it did years ago, but not as low a level as the Swedish variety. Smokeless tobacco naturally has some antioxidant properties (they aid in preventing cancer), so while not risk-free, modern dip is very possibly much safer than cigarettes.

frontmanpb101 Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 i tried dip once... the green can of skoal. got it in mexico but havent done it since then. nice buzz though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostofdavid Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Dude, you should find another sensory hobby to become addicted to. For instance, hot sauce. It can wean you off smoking. Then again, it could make you very fat like I am! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Lantern Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 When i think of dipping... i think of rednecks in the deep south. i guess its kinda like those guys in the wild west too that always spit in the spitoon sitting in the corner of a dingy western saloon. Stereotypes asides, dipping is a gross habit and can lead to nasty mouth/gum/throat cancers. Some really nasty stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
