The main difference — you can feel free to swallow and you will find that you want to because of the sweet herby flavor. But, if you want to spit — for the effect or just to look cool — then by all means please spit freely.

Why is our chew 100% edible? Well, for one, herbs are not nearly as powerful on the system as tobacco. Although there are quite a few very healthy benefits of tobacco, in significant quantities, tobacco is actually a bit of a poison. Thus the puking and head spins from chewing strong tobacco or high mg zinnies. But herbs are not nearly as strong and in fact can have both nutritional and health benefits.

Also, we soak all our herbs in certified organic vegetable glycerine for more than 30 days to achieve a premium 100% organic herbal extract which give them an overall sweet and delicious flavor. Our chew is a great way to enjoy the herbs and their effects without smoking. And while they will not give you the extreme head rush of a nicotine blast, they will relax your mind and body and elevate your spirit.

Our Herbal Chew is not really like tobacco chew. First, the Herbal Chew is also more potent than our dry herbal blends, so starting small is key. Second, it doesn’t have the same resin feel, it’s more of a loose leaf approach. It also don’t necessarily have the same intensity that tobacco chew does. Finally, our Herbal Chew is edible. You’re welcome to consume it, although that is up to personal preference!

Although some people enjoy the Chew loose, others do not! If you’re not a fan of loose Chew, tea bags or making pouches out of cheese cloth might help. You can tuck the chew into the pouches and still receive the benefits with less of a mess!

No. Bear Blend herbal chew is an organic herbal preparation intended for adult ceremonial use. It is not marketed as a smokeless tobacco substitute and is not a tobacco-cessation product.
