Greger, you can grab an extra straw at any fast food place or coffee shop. I learned early on to lay off the sticky hard candies, jerkies, gum, etc. when my fillings started coming loose. A bottle of ice cold water or tea is a great distractor. Eventually, you'll get beyond that need to have something in your mouth all the time...that is a great feeling!

Cigarettes Not Smoked

My 0 calorie surrogates are kitchen matches, I just happened to have a box of them on my desk the day I quit. I've been meaning to get some of those little coffee straws, I've never noticed but I guess they sell 'em at the supermarket.....

I used to suck on straws, shorts ones, you could chew them too if you wanted...they have less calories than what you've been using. :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]3/5/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 182 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 4,550 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $1,920.10 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 22 [B]Hrs:[/B] 6 [B]Mins:[/B] 5 [B]Seconds:[/B] 52

What's in yours? I'm so utterly sick of Altoids, matchsticks and sugar free gum that I'm looking for new horizons in things to stick in my mouth when the junky tells me to smoke. I just added beef jerky to mine, pretty good stuff, it lasts a while and isn't terribly unhealthy.
