My dentist is a great dentist, but we have our disagreements. He poo-poohed the idea that quitting smoking is hard, because when he quit smoking, he started chewing. His kids put a temporary end to that, mixing borax in with his chaw, but next time he went duck hunting he took along a fresh chaw. He says it tastes like dates. Sob. I love dates, but I have kicked the nicotine habit years ago, and I'm not about to start chewing. I'll just eat dates. White shoepeg corn is chewy if you let it mature...Margaret
