Pouch-Welcome! Be sure to post Roll Call ASAP. When you do so you are giving your word that you will not use nic that day. Post Roll Call, keep your word, repeat following day. It makes all the difference. I am on my Day 5 Quit. If there is anything I can do to help please let me know. Today I posted Roll Call and Today I am Quit. Peace

Thanks! No sadly they don't but I guess it would be difficult to find something that would work like leaf chew.

Quit a week ago but I just found this place
« on: April 19, 2011, 03:54:00 AM »
Monday April 11th 8:00 pm I crumpled up my half consumed pouch of Mail Pouch tossed it in the trash. Next day I threw away all the disgusting spit cups/bottles around the house,my car and my toolboxes at work.

Monday April 18th 8:00 pm I sat back thought about how my first solid week was without tobaccy and said Hell Yeah! Don't miss the foul taste,slimy spit cups or dent in my bank account at all. Then I found this place while searching for alternatives for chew.

I been using the little Oregon Mint pouches and they work well but are rather fragile so I was looking for something closer to the shredded leaf stuff I'm used to and I notice a severe lack of choices. I did quit once before like 5-6 years ago (for 4 days) and came across this stuff in a pouch that was literally shredded apple which did not work well because no matter how small a pinch you took it would swell up then start dissolving.

I feel different this time I guess because I was ready to quit. I have had some times when I was sorely tempted but simply pushed it away and said no. I'm not even taking it one day at a time i'm taking it one hour at a time and the best part? Even friends,family and co-workers who smoke/chew are giving me high fives for my efforts.

With all that said I did notice in the review section that the Oregon Mint category was a little thin, would it be okay if I did a review on their Mint Pouches?

And one more question then i'll quit rambling are there any fake chews out there that are shredded leaf style like Red Man or Mail Pouch? The reason I ask is because us pouch people are out there and we never got into the canned stuff. So while Hooch,Bacc-Off and the rest are nice we pouchers have kinda been left out of the alternative product loop.
