Dry cigars can make you ill?

Yes, I keep sugar packets at home for this reason. Nicotine can cause a drop in blood sugar, giving you the nauseated feeling. I just take a packet of sugar, dump it on my tongue, and press my tongue against the roof of my mouth while the sugar dissolves.

I've heard that you absorb the sugar more quickly that way. I don't know if that's true or not, but the method works for me, so that's what I've used.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I seem to recall seeing recommendations to drink something sweet to help offset the nicotine sickness when this happens.
