Would chewing tobacco help?

I don't think so.
Because it's not just the nicotine.
It's the ritual of tapping the pack, pulling one out, lighting up and that first, deep inhale of smoke.
(Can you tell I'm an ex smoker?)

You can use smokeless tobacco to stave off the nicotine withdrawal until the ritual of smoking starts to fade...if you are trying to quit tobacco that is.
