Dipping Tobacco

Dipping tobacco, traditionally referred to as moist snuff, is a type of finely ground or shredded, moistened smokeless tobacco product. It is commonly and idiomatically known by various terms – most often as dip and sometimes rub. It is used by being placed between the lip and the gum and left to dissolve. The act of using it is called dipping, packing or more specifically packing a lip, packing a lipper. Dip is colloquially called "chew", "snuff", "chah", "Daps", "baccer", or "Mouth tobakee" among other terms; because of this, it is sometimes confused with other tobacco products – for example chewing tobacco or dry snuff, respectively.
