I'm using this to get over the habitual part of it.

I chewed Skoal for 40 years and quit 5 or 6 years ago. When I started, it was $.25/can, too. However, I still use Smokey Mountain (wintergreen) fake chew. I kicked the physical addiction but, I guess, not the "habit". When you've had a "flavor" and a "lump" in your mouth for 40 years, it's hard not to have something in there. Gum only goes so far.

The best advice I can give is: never, ever say to yourself, "well, that was easy enough to quit, I think I'll just have a "celebration" chew." Bam, you'll be hooked, again. I no longer have the urge to buy a can of real chew but still like the flavor and feeling the fake stuff gives me.
