A type of smokeless tobacco that is potentially addictive because it contains nicotine. Longterm, regular use can cause oral cancers and dental problems; it should not be used as a substitute for smoking cigarettes. Also known as spit tobacco, chew, dip, and chaw.
Spit tobacco (smokeless tobacco) comes in two forms: snuff and chew. Users put a pinch of snuff (called a "dip" or "rub") next to the gum and hold it there. Chewing tobacco is bulkier than snuff and, as it name suggests, is chewed.

Chewing tobacco is a smokeless tobacco product. Chewing tobacco is usually placed in the mouth in the cheek or alongside the gum, where saliva mixes with the tobacco to release nicotine and other chemicals. Nicotine is absorbed through the mucous membranes of the mouth and delivered to the bloodstream, and the chew is eventually spit out by the user.
Chewing tobacco is a smokeless tobacco product. Chewing is one of the oldest ways of consuming tobacco leaves. Native Americans in both North and South America chewed the leaves of the plant, frequently mixed with lime.
