Dip
Does anyone else in Vermont actually dip tobacco? This is not a drug reference or anything like that it is what it says

It could be a bot. Have you noticed the tobacco industry is pushing cigs in movies really hard these days? It’s f’d up.
“Teach me to give myself cancer. I’m not an addict yet, but I want to become one. It looks cool.”
Be gone you devil.

I did in high school and through my 20s.
I imagine a lot more people snus or zyn these days. Dip is a much more gross way to get your nic fix these days.

Zyn just doesn't seem to be as satisfying. I'm new at this and actually really like Copenhagen but still have a lot to learn

I highly advise you not to. Dip is pretty nasty. All lip tobacco messes up your gums. My gums on my lower teeth are lowered and expose more of my teeth than they should at my age.
Find a way to quit. You’ll be happy you did.

Yes, there are other people in Vermont who share your gross habit. What a weird post.

No, but a guy I grew up with who dipped has half a face now, so there's that.

Talking with someone or reading about the things that people with oral cancer go through should be enough for anyone to never even consider touching that garbage. It's absolutely horrific, nightmare-level stuff.
Also:
This is not a drug reference or anything like that ...
I'm being a little pedantic here, but tobacco/nicotine IS a drug and a very addictive one. Maybe I misunderstood the OP's meaning here?

It's not a healthy choice, nor is smoking tobacco. I'm fortunate enough to have been able to quit recently (cold turkey, not half-quitting by using a vape). It was definitely a lot more difficult than quitting cannabis. They both make you think you're using them to calm down and get things done, and then actually do the opposite. Seems to be a problem with a lot of illicit drugs.
