You aren't too far from the Netherlands where they sell truffles as far as I understand.

Copenhagen is a brand of dip, not his location, if that is what you are referring to.

Ahh, didn't realise that. What's dip in this context? Rolling cigarettes or something different?

"Dip" is chewing tobacco. You put it between your cheek and gums, and the nicotine is absorbed through your oral mucosa.

Not really chewing tobacco, it's moist tobacco that one places between their gums and their lips.

Yeah but it’s _called_ chewing tobacco. Not sure why you corrected the commenter above.

At least in the US, I've never heard dip referred to as chewing tobacco. Only actual chewing tobacco, like the kind that usually comes in pouches.

According to this article the therapy isn't a one-time deal. Being able to grab a few shrooms while on vacation wouldn't do the trick.

Sometimes a single session can work. Always have an experienced guide and don’t do it if there is disposition to schizophrenia.
