Gum is gettin' old

You know there has to be someting else for me to chew on besides this danged old gum all the time! I should own serious stock in Orbit, Extra and all those other  gum companies. I guess it could be worse though.

Oh well, I will just chew on the gum.

Sunflower seeds!!  All kinds of great flavors!  I feel you tammy!  I have become like a beta tester of all kinds of mints and gum.  Always searching for something different.  Some of them good, some not so much.  But as long as its not a cigarette, I'm good!!!

I love Twizzlers!!!!!!  I eat the Strawberry ones.  Be thankful that smoking did not rot your teeth to where you can't chew.  Eat Twizzlers.  They are the best.  Protect your quit!

Chocolate covered espresso beans = instant Beavis!

*** NOT RECOMMENDED IN THE FIRST 30 DAYS OF THE QUIT ***

Fruit would be a healthy alternative, but my favorite is  a Hershey Kiss...  LOL           & Lollipops  are a close second...   everyone says I have a  sweet tooth, LOL

So schwack, tell me....why are the chocolate covered expresso beans not recommended int the first 30 day? Not that it matters now to me as  I have made it to 4 months. Just curious??

I have found the power of the toothpick.  There is something so seriously addicting to the toothpick.  I have a store by me called Whole Foods which carries these Green Tea toothpicks.  They are both the worst tasting and best tasting things in the world.  They are infused with an antiseptic to kills germs and keep the breath fresh.  I never get tired of them and I usually end up chomping them to splinters.  If you do not have a Whole Foods...try getting some minty ones.  They work wonderful. 0 calories and no damage to the teeth..they are wood!
