Oosik,
A bunch of us locals worked at an antimony mine about 50 miles up the Tok River back in the winter of '71. They worked us hard and fed us little and most of us started chewing to lessen our appetites. Started out with Beechnut, graduated to RedMan and then on to Skoal and Copenhagen. The sissy chews didn't have enough nicotine to calm the addiction.
I stopped chewing when the wife quit smoking 10 or so years ago. I'm surprised I didn't od on all the nicotine patches, gum and lozenges it took to quit. Thank God they finally started passing them out for free.
My only vices now are good food and binging on TBN!
