Chewing tobacco

Chewing tobacco is a form of tobacco that is not smoked, but is held in the mouth and chewed or sucked. It contains cut or pressed tobacco leaves that slowly release flavor and nicotine. Chewing tobacco often has a strong, bitter taste and is traditionally used as an alternative to smoking. However, its use poses health risks as it contains harmful substances that can be addictive and harmful to the mouth and body.
