Sunflower Seeds

[Algernon]

When I first tried to quit smoking, I considered something that would:

1. Taste good

2. Keep my mouth busy.

3. Be cheap

Sunflower seeds fit that bill. If you're good at your tongue-work and can open them easily in your mouth, you can just toss a few in and spit out the shells as you go through them. It got me off smokes for about six months at one point.

Not much good for those of us with dentures ...

All it did for me was give me mouth sores from the salt, and make me crave cigarettes everytime I stopped chewing them.
