When I was a little kid my Grandmother dipped Bruton Snuff and she would give me a little bit of brown sugar in an empty snuff can and let me dip that along with her so I could spit juice just like she did....One day I found the real Bruton can and figured that since what she was giving me tasted great then the real stuff would be fantastic so i poured me out a handfull and crammed it in my mouth and immediately inhaled it up my nose, had a seizure, went temporarily blind, started running in circles, coughed up my liver then threw up all over myself........Found out real quick that snuff don't taste anything like brown sugar, the adults had a big laugh and I nearly died....Gave up tobacco at 5 years old....Live and learn...

Nope, Grandpa was a farmer, raised corn and soybeans...He had a small herd of cows and a few hogs (he didn't care much for sheep) and I never saw the man without either a Pall Mall unfiltered cigarette or if unable to smoke he had a huge wad of Beachnut chewing tobacco in his cheek....He lived until he was 88 and only died then because of a fall and broken hip...
