Why'd I Start? My Grandpa chewed Mail Pouch, and I adored my grandpa. It's that simple. Been 40 years. A tin a day, hurts to even write that. February 1 I was researching Tobacco alternatives and came across this site and on this site I came across a lengthy post about just doing it Cold turkey. So I did. Still have my last tin with one pinch left in it sitting right here on my desk, and I'm going to leave it there. It doesn't make sense but it makes my conviction stronger seeing it there. Biggest thing I did was commit to my wife and kids. They think I can do anything I set my mind to, and I will not disappoint them.
