Basically showing that “abstinence only” approaches are rarely the correct approach. I went from smoking -> vaping -> pouch -> nothing. It was a long journey but it worked.
I still think that banning nicotine pouches is among the top 5 dumbest things that my country's current Labour government has done.
Over here the pouches aren't classified as nicotine product for some reason, so they aren't age restricted. So the kids start on them.
