Hey all,
Just joined the forum. I'm 44 years old and been dipping since I was 14 (yep, 30 years). Had a scare about 10 years ago - had a small lump excised from my check and it was found to not be cancerous. I attempted to quit then, but it only lasted about 10-15 days. Tried half-heartedly a few more times since then but it never stuck.
Finally, March 5th, 2012 I was doing research on the internet (with a fresh dip in my mouth) about Quitting Smokeless Tobacco and found the DipStop website. I ordered there DipStop Program and 6 cans of their fake dip. I found this forum from their website while I was in search of better fake dip tonight.
Long story short, My last dip was March 5th, 2012 right after I found the DipStop website. I made it past the 3 day period and have all the nicotine flushed out of my system. I've been doing really good - only having to put the fake dip in my mouth 1-2 times a days. However the darn cravings are driving me nuts and that is why I am looking for some better fake dip.
I chewed Kodiak Wintergreen for 30 years - anybody have a recommendation as to the closest fake alternative dip I can buy?

Welcome. Fake snuff has been a huge help to me. Smokey Mountain does a good wintergreen and mint. You can order it from their website and avoid any temptation of buying it in a convenience store...great to be quit with you - WW

Until today I've been doing really good - sailing along with very little cravings, then BAM...! - the darn cravings are driving me nuts and that is why I am looking for some better fake dip. I chewed Kodiak Wintergreen for 30 years - anybody have a recommendation as to the closest fake alternative dip I can buy? I tried that Bacc-off Energized Wintergreen, but that ain't cuttin' it.
I went from having a chew in my mouth for 14-18 hours a day to NADA, except for one chew of fake dip each day. Well, I had 2 fake chews yesterday. Today I was fine until about 4pm the the craving monster reared it's damn ugly head and smacked the shit outta me with a vengeance! Right now I'm chewing Earl Grey loose leaf tea leaves. At least its helping and keeping me away from the real chew.

It would be great if there was some magic stop crave pill everyone could take but unfortunately there is not.....
Drink a ton of water and keep busy along with mixing some things up right now your still battling the nic crave and the habit, so mix it up some fake chew if needed then wintergreen Altoids or some winterfresh gum but mix it up that should help a bit.
Stay strong and quit on quiter!
-
Thanks Grizzly25, never thought of wintergreen Altoids or gum. When I was chewing Kodiak, I would always stay away from wintergreen anything, cause it reminded me of my chew and I wouldn't want to swallow anything that tasted like wintergreen chew.

Anytime!
They taste more like Skoal but they do satisfy that have to be doing something craving....
They work for me but I have been really going thru the winterfresh and altoids alot, I try to mix it up when I leave the house for work I may take the altoids or the gum or even buy some hard candy just never the same everyday.
Quit on Quiter!
PM me if you need some numbers and stay strong with your quit!

Wahoo......the Hooch Fake chew arrived....!!!!!!! Just in the nick of time, I was headed down the driveway to go to Walmart and pick up some Smokey Mountain, as the mail man was pulling up to the mailbox. He held up the priority mail package for me to see and I stopped and grabbed it.
I went on to Walmart anyhow and got me some of that Smokey Mountain wintergreen just for good measure. Now I'm stocked up on fake chew. I got 11 cans of 3 different brands and got about 6 more cans on the way from another manufacturer. I'm on a never ending quest to find good fake chew.
-
Out of the 3 brands of fake chew I have tried, so far the Hooch fake snuff is the shit!

Good to hear you found a good substitute!

Received my shipment in from Golden Eagle Herbal Chew. There stuff is very much like Hooch but a bit stickier. It has now become my #2 favorite fake dip.

Thank goodness for this fake dip. I was doing some work outside my house today , some might say a small "project", (from the HoneyDo list) and really craved a good dip. As I was getting started on the project, I reached in my pocket for my can (which I don't even carry a can anymore) and suddenly remembered that I had to go back in the house to get my fake dip. Once I put in a good sized fake dip, all was good in the world, and my project went along smoothly.

Yes, I have tried that brand, they carry it at my local Walmart. It's my backup fake. It's a little bit too sweet, but has the closest mouth feel to Kodiak.
