I started using a type of tobacco product I make that closely resembles small cigar corona type chew sticks made out of cigar ligueros. They average around 7" long, but the RG is closer to a 32. They're infused with a rum vanilla mixture, then I let them air out a bit, to let the alcohol out. They then sit in cedar for a few days. I cut them in 1" or longer tubular shape. Basically they're self contained, pretty concealed, and can be used anywhere. Most people have no clue I have tobacco in my mouth. I go this route because I'm diabetic, and can't use any carbs such as long or short cut chew, and it doesn't cause receding gums like chew.
I like all the ideas presented here, and "whatever works for you" is always the best solution, not the "one size fits all" mentality of commercial tobacco.
