Gear and my oral fixation

[JKurz1]

Anyone else get extreme dry mouth and need to chew on something while on? Sugarless gum is making me sick to my stomach (because I eat so f-ing much....) Anyone have any suggestions? Now and laters sure look good, too bad they're all sugar........

I had ther same problem when I quit smoking, I used to chew that Orbit bubble mint gum til I was about to throw up. Twizzlers and beef jerky were my replacements.

What other things are there to chew on that doesnt have any carbs/sugar? I'm trying to quit smoking and having trouble finding things. I can't really chew gum because I have TMJ and it fucks w/ my jaw too much.

One thing I've been chewing on is strawberry halls menthol drops. They ain't too bad. One thing though, for the ingredients it only lists one thing, menthol. How is this possible? Am I getting sugar and carbs from these that I may not know about? I don't get how something like these can only have one ingredient.

LOL. I'm sure you are. That sounds like the "active" ingredient list for a medication. I guess they don't label them like food, but I've seen some that say sugar-free; so there may be a full list on there somewhere....

If they're the vit c defense strawberry; they have 4 carbs; 3 from sugar per lozenge.

I think the halls brand has some sugar alcohols in them to give them taste in the honey and Strawberry flavors I belive, but I am not 100% sure
