    I've tried every herbal chew product you can purchase in the US market. The best, IMO. is www.hoochsnuff.com If you like hot stuff, they make a herbal snuff called "spitfire" that is fantastic!
    If you have any problems with my posts or signature

      Before i found snus i was trying to quit dip and I've been through them all of those non tobacco dips. From ground up roots and spices to shredded mint leaves to shredded sea spogne infused with B vitamins. None of them are worth a penny. It's not the flavor its not the texture its just.....not tobacco and you will easily tell. All the reviews are obviously fabricated. The mint crap has no juice and no flavor, or its so strong your sinuses will clear for a week and you'll have a headache. Stuff like hooch snuff was ok....but it just wasnt right, I even tried mixing one can of it with 5 cans of copenhagen and i could still tell i wasnt having an actual dip. Nip the Grip (the shredded sea sponge stuff) was ok but the flavor ran otu quickly you had to use a lot to get a decent dip size and it was expensive as shit. I like a lot of foods and spices so im not one to just flat out not like something, the key is though you are addicted to nicotine and those products just dont have it.

      The classic or straight flavors for everything were horrid and tasted more like bourbon mixed with cat feces, and the other flavors either didnt have a falvor or were just too gross and unappealing to keep using them. If you're looking to quit i would just keep stepping down the mg/g of nicotine with snus and then once ur down to the lowest tryign to use less and less.

        Golden eagle is one of the many i tired as well and it was just as wrong and terrible as the others, I spent probably 300 buying 10 cans of every quit dip product you can try and they are all DECENT in the sense its something that is "kind of" like dip but none of them are really worth anything. If you are interested in trying any of the non tobacco dips i would jsut order one can and not waste the money. I was big into thinking that the next product would totally work but all of them just didnt.

          Thanks for the input. It saves me some $$$ as those products are usually cheap but start to add up when you add in shipping cost. I am thinking Northerner Citrus might be the way to go.

              I tried some just out of curiosity and it was at a local store, it's been a long time, but it was a brand called something Mountain, I'd have to look it up, and it was terrible, it was like shreeded plastic, and the flavor was terrible, I got Straight and Wintergreen. It turned me off to even think about trying any other non-tobacco dip again.

                smoky mountain. They usually sell it at Casey's (gas station chain in the midwest) I can stomach a lot of things so i never had too many flavors i flat out hated but yeah. One of the big problems with the quit dip stuff is its impossible to either get it to stick together like a dip or its impossible for it to come apart so you dont use the whole can at once.

                  OK I ordered the Golden Eagle and Hooch Snuff. Hopefully, they will be here before the weekend.

                    OK so far I have tried the Hooch Spitfire. I have to say I was pretty impressed by Hooch's lightning fast shipping. When ordering Hooch, you get to pick between a plastic or regular metal tin. I opted for the metal tin. PITA to open. The product inside looks like los tobacco and smells so so. I used a 3ml Ice Tool to make my pris and this stuff packs just like los tobacco. The taste of this stuff is awesome. I don't really taste anything resembling tobacco but I am definitely tasting cayenne pepper with just a hint of salt and vinegar. It is spicy but not overbearing. I am thinking this might be the perfect breakfast treat as it would go quite well with hash browns and coffee. Overall, I am impressed! I am not so sure about using this instead of snus but rather, using it to cut down on snus. Makes me want to pour tabasco on some Pioneer or Grov. If any snus makers are reading this, please come up with a cayenne flavored los. Preferably in the range of 6-8 mgs. for nicotine.

                      I was actually impressed by the spitfire when i tried it but like i said.....its just not tobacco and sooner or later it just wont be appealing to use anymore

                        Spitfire

                        I will second that, spitfire is about the only one i liked, and it is due to that burn. The taste is ok, but the burn makes you feel like you got a dip.

                          I've only tried the Smoky Mountain, both in pouches and loose. Oddly, they didn't taste anything alike, but both sucked balls.

                            The Eagle stuff Ive had in three flavors, all awful. I mixed one tin with about two good pinches of Copenhagen and it wad tolerable. Gave me worse gator lip tham any dip.

                              I tried the smokey mountain, still have 3 cans I will never touch. have not tried hooch yet, but its cheap I think I might order some. Has anyone tried Elicit chew? It says it has nicotine in it, was not sure how i felt about that at first, but it might be a good idea to merge into a quit.
