Sinus tobacco

Tobacco is really big in the Army. Since you can't smoke indoors or in a motor pool, you have to step outside the gate. Away from your boss. Near the parking lot where there are no cameras to see you leave.

Convenient.

But for those who actually want to get work done, there's dipping. The only problem with dipping is that you have to spit, which requires you to carry a bottle of nasty swill around with you.

Not so convenient.

So it makes sense that Camel would choose to launch a new smokeless tobacco product -- one where you don't have to spit -- in Austin last year.[Source] Conveniently nearby is Fort Hood, the largest Army base in the United States.

I saw some at a PX shoppette nearby. The name threw me for a curve. "What!?!" I thought. "Is Camel bringing back snuff?"

No. After the double take, I noticed the name is a bit different than I first thought.


Couldn't care less about the product, but I'm happy with my photo editing skills.
