The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

An issue here as well, although I understand the feds and provincial authorities are closing the doors on it through regulation:

Governments around the world have tried to kill the tobacco industry. Zyn, the brand of flavored oral nicotine pouches that comes in small, round containers resembling breath mints, is its latest strategy.
While it’s ultimately owned by tobacco giant Philip Morris International, Zyn is a tobacco-free product. White pouches similar in size to a piece of chewing gum send more nicotine than what’s in a cigarette right into the bloodstream. Unlike traditional chewing tobacco, you don’t have to chew the pouches or spit the build-up of tobacco juice.
and
In 2023, Zyn pouch shipments in the United States hit 385 million cans, a 62% increase from the year prior, according to Phillip Morris International, Zyn’s parent company. Zyn shipments this year are expected to grow another 35%.
After a surge in demand for Zyn that led to shortages of the pouches — fans called it the “Zynpocalypse” —Phillip Morris International announced a $600 million investment last week in a new manufacturing facility in Aurora, Colorado, to increase production.
and
A dependency on nicotine causes cravings and withdrawal symptoms such as irritability, headaches, dizziness and fatigue. Researchers have found long-term usage may be connected with heart disease, vascular disease, reproductive disturbances and more, according to the National Cancer Institute. Nicotine does not cause cancer or lung disease, according to the FDA.
Philip Morris International, which split from Phillip Morris USA, does not sell cigarettes in the United States. It said Zyn is not intended or sold as a smoking cessation product.

What possible benefit can chewing nicotine bring?
As far as I can remember, the only benefit it gave me was stopping the nicotine craving, but that's not exactly a benefit.
These fucking tobacco companies are assholes. If we want to talk about reparations, they'd be a bloody good place to start.

Rod Carew, who won 7 batting titles, claimed that the wad of tobacco in his cheek helped him see the ball better.
It's tough to argue with 7 batting titles.
He later died from salivary gland (right next to the tobacco) cancer.

So you're saying that a hidden benefit of chewing tobacco is that it kills baseball players?
That's a bit harsh, even for me.

Didn't hurt that he tended to use a lighter, shorter bat. Not a lot of homers, but very quick bat speed...
