A twist to the no-smoking-in-bars issue:

Herbal cigarettes at issue in Delaware ban
Source: Newszap: Delaware State News, 2003-07-23

Health advocates and government officials have begun discussing what can be done about the herbal cigarettes not restricted by the state's indoor smoking ban.

The Clean Indoor Air Act forbids only the smoking of tobacco products in most indoor public places. Herbal cigarettes, such as the Ecstacy brand, contain substances such as catnip and spearmint, but have no tobacco.

A Smyrna bar recently had its fine for violating the smoking ban reversed after the owner argued his customers could have been smoking herbal cigarettes, which are sold in the establishment.

Anyone who has smoked a 'herbal cigarette', not refering to doobie, will know this is a null argument as 'herbal cigarettes' taste fucking foul nobody in their right mind would ever smoke them as a habit.

I tired Rose hip fags once, trying to give up... in the end I stole my flat mates Silk Cut and replaced them all with the foul pretend ciggies and took all the tar nictoniry goodness for myself.

I think the point is that you say to your freindly neighbourhood Garda raiding committee, "I may have been smoking a non-illegal ciggie. Please prove otherwise".
At which point they present your Silk Cut butts and packet as evidence and yuo get 20 years. Or something.

Does anyone know a non-foul tasting, nicotine-free alternative to tobacco?
I have just quit fags (completely by accident, as it happens) but I'm living in the land of weed and don't want to have to give that up just yet too. And please don't suggest pure joints. Neither my wallet nor my brain can stand such treatment.

No, but you should buy yourself a dug-out. Remember that thingy that made Hector puke and giggle for 2 hours in a party in Simono's houses in Sandymount. One of those. They're great for smoking good week without any tobacco.

I heard the missus got a job - tell her congrats from me. .|..|
 
how can this happen?
Through a combination of factors, namely:
Running out of cigarettes.
Having a cold/bug which made the last couple of cigarettes taste foul and make me feel very ill.
Thus not going to the shop to buy more cigs.
By the 4th day (today) I am no longer with cold, and have no particular desire to buy more fags.

Why don't you make some brownies and take it that way?
Because it's really not the same thing. I don't want to have to wait an hour to get high and then to get really fucking uncontrollably high.

I don't remember actually. Was that the party where a certain avant-gardist fell on a flower pot and had to be asked to leave?
I suppose I could try some sort of pipe, but as I said, I prefer not to smoke it pure and I enjoy the actual experience of smoking long hand rolled ciggies. And pipes/bongs etc are so American...

Perhaps a cup of tea might be in order. I like tea... ;)

one of those 'head' shops in the powerscourt center used to sell bags of smokable herbs. I bought a bag years ago and spent an afternoon in my bedsit (how apt) smoking it and trying to be stoned. Doesnt work, but as I am in much the same predicament as yourself (i.e avoiding all nicotine) I have been considering getting a bag of legal herbs and mixing it with not so legal herbs.

Give it a go and let me know if you puke yourself or something..
 
theres this stuff called Slavia Divorum (or something) thats sold as a legal high

it's shit, obviously.

but if you mix it with a bit of wacky backy (as my dad might say) it's a nice smoke and the Slavia adds a bit of a buzz to it. Hard to describe, but, after many hours of experimentation, our team of specialists agreed it's noticable difference in "buzz"

But I mean if your in The 'Damn smoking your drug ring off with Super Skunk who gives a shit about getting a bit of a funny buzz with some pretend drugs?

Took me a while to figure out what the ocasion was. BBQ on the wettest day of the year. The day after the pram gig.

Did hector ever send you a copy of Suerplady?
 
now im not a doctor or nuttin buh isnt nicotene one of the least problematic compounds in cigarettes - yea it affects the nervous system and that. The real problem is with the carbon monoxide, tar and benzine compounds etc. Will you not get similar levels of carbon monoxide and tar etc. from herbal tobacco. They are created by combustion of organic compounds.

just smoke grass (every day) like a good rasta man. you might die of cancer but youll rise like a lion in Zion and spend eternity jammin it with JAH.
