Anti dipping is sooo bunk... I always like to think about how many major league baseball players get cancer that you have heard about...do a google search, you won't find many and AT LEAST 1/3 currently dip...Lets also add retired ball players that probably still continue the habit

Ah the old skoal playboy issue, it's quite interesting they decided to do that it was really successful I think.

Never had Skoal Nat b4... I REALLY want to try Cope WG soooo bad...I saw some the other day over in the states but didn't think much about buying any... now I regret it as I've seen raving reviews online since lol. So ya I'm mainly a Wintergreen, Natural, Straight guy in that order....but Wintergreen and Natural are very close. I dip a lot of wintergreen because it's the cheapest but wow I do love natty! It's gotta be Cope or nothing when doing Natural.
The key is getting fresh Cope Fine Cut, it doesn't last near as long in freshness compared to Long Cut.

Copenhagen wintergreen is awesome, you should try it!

You guys must not watch it too much there, it's definitely not a myth lol

"Athletes, particularly baseball players, are known to be heavy users of spit (smokeless) tobacco (ST). Investigators have reported that 33% to 40% of professional baseball players1–3 and 45% to 55% of college baseball players4,5 (National Collegiate Athletic Association, unpublished data, 2001) use ST regularly"

seems so

I watched a few baseball playoffs but never noticed anything in their lip

I guess it was a few years ago and I didn't know what dipping was back then

Hey there,

myself love to dip but i dont do more then 2-3 pinches a day. It give me the perfect feeling in the moring shower ;-) At the moment, it is getting worse with snus here in Europe - may you know, it is illegal now to directly import it from Sweden to Germany, so i am damn happy that the fridge is filled with good´ol chew and dip. Besides this 2 cent story, i can second on Copenhagen Wintercut LC´s greatness, good taste and mouth feeling. You want some more for you money, go with a big tube of Stroker´s Wintercut LC, i love it!

Okay, seriously buddy, I am starting to grow concerned with all this dip talk. I think its time for a snuson intervention. Being a die hard tobacco user myself I will save you the stories and warning because if your like me it won't mean much, but just watch out, dip can creep up on you.

Can't agree more. Even more sad is when you are aware that it is the nicotine, not the actual "Having something in your mouth" aspect but it's the psychoactive attributes that make the stuff nice to slobber over. I am currently finding vitamin-type supplements that work in similar ways that nicotine does to stop relying on chew. But at $2.40 for a delicious tin of Copenhagen Wintergreen and add that to the fast-paced summer semesters at the university, the mechanism and the speed of absorption of nicotine...

Stress will kill me faster than cancer.
